According to experts, the ideal ratio of roosters to hens in chicken farming is 1:12, taking into account the nature of the rooster.
If this ratio is not met, roosters may become overly aggressive towards hens, leading to stress and potential harm.
Additionally, a low rooster to hen ratio can result in hens developing bald spots, a common issue in chicken farming.
