Roo or Hen?
Our take
Introducing the age-old question: Roo or Hen? As first-time chicken owners, you’re navigating the delightful (and sometimes chaotic) world of poultry. With three chicks from a straight run batch, you’re now on the edge of your seat, wondering if you’ve got two roosters and one hen among your feathery trio. Hitting the six-week mark, concerns about your lone hen’s well-being are totally valid—after all, no one wants a lonely chicken! Fear not, though; you have a plan in place to relocate the roosters to a friend’s farm in need. Here, we’ll explore ways to ensure your hen feels cozy and secure, even if she’s flying solo. Let’s dive into the cluck-tastic journey of your feathered friends!
