What cockrel will you get? Can I suggest a French Maran and call it
Napoleon (we had one you see) - they're loud and bold and have a
gorgeous plumage.


We aren't planning on getting a cockerel. As far as I understand chicken
biology it is only necessary to have a cockerel if planning on having
fertile eggs from which to hatch more chickens. Otherwise the chickens still
produce unfertilised eggs anyway. But I may be wrong? Chickens are new to
me...
