There is a big rooster at home. Why do hens only like to run with it?

Chickens are social animals. They all move in groups like ducks, geese, cows and sheep. These animals are led by males, and they live a life of foraging. If there is only one rooster at home, there won't be many chickens. Under normal circumstances, there are only a dozen or even less than twenty chickens.

Why do so many hens have only one rooster? What is the purpose of keeping a rooster?

In rural areas, chicken-raising families all want to have mother eggs to eat. Under normal circumstances, raising a dozen eggs is enough for a family to eat eggs. In all the animal kingdom, there will be a king in droves, even three or five chickens and ducks will have a king, and the kings in the animal kingdom are basically male. In rural areas, you will find that no matter what kind of poultry and livestock farmers keep, they must have males, such as chickens, ducks and geese, and there are one or two male poultry in them. Of course, there are still many females, and females can lay eggs.

Animals are similar to humans and need to mate at a certain time, that is, they will attract the opposite sex like humans. A rooster followed by many hens is naturally full of stars.

The main task of this proud rooster is not to mate with hens, but to protect all hens, all of whom are its subjects. Rooster guarding hens will reassure farmers, because roosters will lead hens out for food and will be responsible for bringing them back safely. At the critical moment, the fighting capacity of the rooster should not be underestimated. I once saw a rooster fighting with a small snake and protecting the hen from behind. It hit the snake with its mouth and claws and ran away. Hens are willing to follow the rooster, not only to impress, but also to go out for food and then get the protection of the rooster. Hens can't be jealous, because the choice is in the hands of the rooster. Which hen the rooster likes, other hens dare not interfere or interfere.

Hens run with roosters, for one thing, to have a chance to be loved, for another, their subjects need to support the king and follow him forever, and for another, they can be protected.
