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.
The rooster's sexual organ is called a papilla, a small bump inside his cloaca from which semen exits. To mate, a rooster climbs onto the back of a hen, standing on the hen's back and using his wings maintain balance, and forcefully touches his cloaca to hers in what's known as a cloacal kiss.
The younger the roosters the better your odds of fertile eggs. I usually keep about one rooster for every 20 hens. This can vary according to the amount of space and the temperament of the roosters. Chicks hatch at 21 days, the hens gave up because none of the eggs were fertile.he younger the roosters the better your odds of fertile eggs. I usually keep about one rooster for every 20 hens.
