Hello I will uplode when I get the rooster some pictures to show the size difference, but i have a hen (normal size) but she is not going to grow normal size because I fed her normal layer grain to early she still is bigger then the rooster (a little bit) But I just wanted to know what the little roosters do when there put in with some bigger hens.

Thankyou, Charlotte
 
LOL they do what they can as often as they can Except when they fall off

Yea they dont have any problems like they can eat, drink, poo and all that sort of stuff but they will only grow to the size that looks like a 4 month old hen same with roosters I guess

Dont worry though because if you feed them chick starter untill they are about.....
Well as long as you can untill they are like looking big enough to go onto the next stage of food I forget what it is called but there is 3 stages and the third stage is laying pellets

I hope this helps why are you worried any ways?
