I have a 12 week old barred rock cross cockrell , Someone contacted me who is looking for one. I would love to rehom this guy to find a new home but is he too young? How old does he have to be to survive the new ladies. She has about twenty hens.

guess the best thing to do is put him in with the girls and watch and make sure they aren't picking on him. and he has someplace to get up and away if need be. Also watch he gets to the food and water. They might enjoy having a guy around!!
