RHODE ISLAND RED!!! Oh, I like them! I'd like a Rhode Island red for me, alright? Two of em.

[@luvxtheo]

i own two of them! they are very easy to take care of. Very recommended to take care of

[@Ravishrex1]

I get a egg every day .

[@yahsomeacres7816]

If you don't let your birds share nesting boxes, is a recipe for sitting wasting time in the coop everyday to make sure they are all in their own box.
I have 18 Rhode Island Reds and 2 nesting boxes, they mostly prefer one.

[@arthurdewith7608]

Roll away nesting boxes

[@danielleterry2331]

Rofl I have 9 hens and 4 boxs and they all use 2 and switch around lol

So I have a rooster and I have a red Rhode island chicken is she gonna have a high chance of going broody?

[@vivamaintenance752]

What about Sasso Chicken?

[@n2skcmo]

Good luck trying to keep them using the same nest. Sometimes they will use the same box at the same time. Sharing is caring. Half the nests go unused.

Barred rock?

My Rhode Island rooster is a terd! I need him to fertilize my eggs as I raise my meat but I hate having to watch him as he attacks ! His days might be numbered once his spurs start to grow. So looking into the black ostorlorp as they are a dual purpose also.

[@PracticalNeuron]

just don't get the roosters
the smaller they roosters are, the quieter they are
that’s all I’m gonna say
I know this from experience

[@AgricultureAcademy]

Thanks for the tips regarding the roosters 😅

[@Tantrix1]

​@@AgricultureAcademy How about having a hen alone will they make lots of noise? I want to get one for the garden.

[@Tantrix1]

Are the hens on it own really loud? I want one for the garden for egg laying

[@Ravishrex1]

@@Tantrix1 get to hens so they wont be lonely

[@ronnelechavez]

@@Tantrix1 Having hens alone could make them more vulnerable to hawks and other birds of prey.

[@cccynova]

I do NOT recommend RIR chickens unless you want only laying hens and not roosters, and you are not looking for friendly, pet-like chickens. They are not a laid-back breed. The hens are flighty and elusive toward humans and the roosters are aggressive. They will attack your children. We have 6 children, who are outside with the chickens quite a bit. Our black Australorp never attacks our little ones; neither did our Buff Orpington roo (who sadly was recently taken by a pack of dogs along with 6 of his hens during the night).
