crazy kc Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Yes he can live with the hens when he is old enough. We have a pekin boy who lives with our ex bats and cream legbar hens and he is very busy. We have even hatched some of his chicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bevmatt Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Yep - i have a croadl langshan hen running in the pen with my tiny sablepoots - it is quite funny watching them try to tread her as often she just gives them a piggy back around the place but they live very happily together - not point trying to hatch these eggs though they get no where near her if you know what i mean!
