I found out that the roosters aren't needed unless you want chicks, but even then, they're hardly worth the hassle. To be tender, they must be butchered young. I had always heard they kept the hens happy, but in my experience, they just made the hens featherless. And the fertilized egg thing is overrated. When the time came to get rid of the chickens (they were'nt laying well anymore) I called a buddy who owns two large pythons. They love chicken. On edit, the old chicken coop has proved a great place to grow things.
