How do chickens on an egg farm reproduce they need a roster?
You're right! Chickens on an egg farm do need roosters for reproduction.
Here's how it works:
* Eggs are only fertilized if a rooster has mated with a hen. While hens can lay eggs without mating, these eggs will not be fertile and won't hatch chicks.
* Egg farms typically have a small number of roosters to fertilize a large number of hens. This is because a rooster can fertilize many hens.
* The goal of egg farms is to produce eggs, not chicks. So, most eggs produced on egg farms are unfertilized and are intended for human consumption.
