As I mentioned in yesterdayâs post about the house where Joan Crawford (aka Faye Dunaway) lived in Mommie Dearest, I have become just a wee-bit obsessed with the 1981 film as well as the 1978 autobiography of Joanâs daughter, Christina Crawford, on which it was based.
Hens will lay nutritious eggs without having a rooster around. A virile rooster will mate frequently with most or all the hens in his harem. If there arenât enough girls to divide his time among, he may wear them out. This can cause damage to the hensâ combs, necks, and backs from the roosterâs beak and spurs. Generally, a good minimum ratio is 8-10 hens per rooster.
If you have a rooster in with your hens, then chances are the eggs are fertilized. We collect your eggs daily, keep them cool and humidified. DO NOT refrigerate them. The rooster should be about one-year-old and you can watch the rooster and see if it jumps on the hen's back.â¦.ens do not lay eggs for humans to eat. They lay eggs to reproduce. Humans just learned that they were a healthy food source and made them a part of their diets and everyday meals. One view Because roosters cannot. Another view Laying eggs is nature's way for chickens to reproduce.
