Moving chickens & What happens when you remove a rooster from his hens?

Romeo the rooster made quite a trip to find his girls again. George isn't super close to us, but the sounds of our birds travel so he probably heard them and found his way, which is just crazy to me.
It's been a big pain in the rear to have 4 active chicken coops/runs. I need to consolidate. I decided to move all the remaining Rhode Island Red hens and one of the roosters I got from George (the reddish one) into the coop/run with the youngest hens (they will be a year old this May).

Their feathers are ripped out because they don’t cooperate when he is trying to mate with them or perhaps they like it rough. Roosters are very chivalrous though!

Interesting! I learn something new constantly.
