>Phyllis Phyllis, how old is the male,and can he see the other males in other pens? I feed my breeder a 20% protein. A male 3yrs or older should be fine with 4 hens.I have up to 6 hens per male. So i would say some other factor.

Thank you Deerman:

Yes, he can see the male in the next pen. In general they get along, once in awhile they will jump at each other but no real fighting.
They all get a 16% layer pellet,and a scoopful of dried cat food. Various grass and other greens.
He was 3 this year and had the most beautiful train, almost as long as my 5 yr olds.
