Fun Farm Fact Friday… April 3rd

It’s time to break up all the goat facts with a chicken fact! Today’s chicken fact was one that I found quite interesting…

If you have several different roosters around your hens can/will breed with all of them, but they also have the ability to reject the sperm of roosters with whom they do not wish to reproduce. She can physically eject the sperm after they breed. This generally happens when the rooster is lower in the pecking order.
