I have an older hen named Bella. As long as she has a rooster around she justs acts like a hen.My Brahma Blue has always been at the top of the pecking order in every pen he’s been in, but he does try to mate with the other roosters!
When she does not have a rooster she becomes very dominate and bossy. She will sometimes attempt to mate the younger hens.
I told her be bossy all you want but you are not built for "rooster duties".
She ignores me.
