Breeding LF Hen on the small side to bigger LF Rooster??

<< < (2/2)

Korfus Kluckers:
I have had some very large males. I had on in particular that would not ride on the back of the female but straddle her when he mated. I would not worry to much. Just keep a close eye on them to make sure no injury takes place. You might also put the male in with her every few days and not keep him in there full time.

I used a LF Orpington male. Which was about 3-4 lbs larger than my brown red females, with no problems. I also am working on LF chocolate Orpingtons. The male in again 2-4 lbs bigger than the females and I have had no problems with that mating either. I hope this helps.
