I Have a Buff Brahma Cockerel and He is 8 Months Old He Hasn't Started Acting Like a Rooster Lately He Hasn't Maid With any Of My Brahma Hens I Have 3 Light Brahmas All Are Laying and My Cockerel Hasn't Even Called Them For Food and I Have 3 Dark Brahma Hens and 2 Cochin Hens and They Haven't Layed Yet and They're The Same Age Of My Brahma Cockerel Why Haven't They Matured Yet? I Have 2 Younger Naked Necks and They Already Want To Lay an Egg and Also I have a 5 Month Old Sumatra Cockerel Who Already Has Begun To Crow Help Me Please What Do I Do? Could My Cockerel Be Afraid Of Japanese Bantam? That's Why He Isn't Acting More Like a Rooster Should I Leave Him Alone With The Hens? Help Me Please and Why Hasn't My Dark Brahma Hens Layed My Light Brahmas Started Laying When They Were 7 Months Old On January Of This Year
 
All chickens mature at their own rates. Sometimes a rooster will not crow and a pullet will not lay until they are older - are all your chickens in the same pen? If you have one rooster that is crowing, the one that is not as dominant might not crow or call the ladies for food, as that is the 'head rooster''s job. So yes, if you separate the roosters out your less dominant rooster might step up and do his thing with the ladies.
