Well, I mean not fertile vrs. non fertile, but chasing them around? We have 2 roosters and 19 hens, actually got 8 eggs today, but wondered if the roos behavoir negated egg production.
THANKS!
 
They can if their attempts to mate are so frequent that it stresses your hens. However, a ratio of 10 hens per roo is good, so you're about on target there.
