Question by Meowordie: 10 QUESTION ABOUT CHICKENS, please help!!!?
OK i have three chickens living in my backyard (one rooster, one hen and one silkie hen)
and i have ALOT of questions,
1-is it ok to bring a silkie rooster??? i know you cant get 2 normal roosters but maybe its ok since there’s a difference between silkies and normal chickens
2- can i get the hen to sit on the eggs without her being broody
3- aren’t the roosters supposed to break the eggs… the hen has layed about 3-6 eggs but they were all safe ( im glad, but is there something wrong with the rooster?)
4- how can i tell the age of a silkie? and about what age do the lay eggs?
5- how many eggs should one chicken lay? what about silkies?
6-will the rooster let the hen keep the chickens if their not his?
7- do i still have to take care of the eggs, even though the mother is there?
8- can a rooster and silkie make… chicks?
9- dont all eggs have chicks? if they do can i incubate a random egg?
10- does the rooster Have to mate with the hen before the eggs get chicks? if so how long will it take?
