At the moment I don't have space which would be suitable for chickens to live in the wintertime. Last summer I got three roosters growing up (in the late autumn when the temperature begins to fall below freezing I killed them for meat). And I saw my dog eating one of the roosters - which makes me bit unsure about keeping a flock of my own. Especially my cat is very eager to hunt squirrels and little birds, so I don't know how the chicken, the dog and the cat would fit in the same yard.
Anyhow, again for this summer I promised to take roosters from my neighbours. As they can't keep them in their flock, they just start fighting. But when there are boys only with no girls around, they do better.
