I've had chickens for about 5 years now, started with a roo and 4 hens, all buff orpingtons. I have gained and lost a few over the last few years and always get rid of roosters because I only had a few hens. Now that I have 12 I'm wondering if it's ok to keep my cute buff polish that was sent to me as an exotic freebie from McMurray. He is about 6 months old and not really that aggressive. He does try to be a rooster with the hens, but only when they are free ranging. When he's in the coop he is very submissive to our big roo. My husband thinks he must be unhappy and we should give him away. He stays to himself most of the time when free ranging and away from the flock. What do you think? How unhappy can he really be and does it really matter? TIA
