Cocks not interested in females

[tariq]

Hi,

I had/have more number of cocks than hens in my avairy. The problem is that all spare cocks have become friends with each
other in pairs (2 cocks). Now when I introduce new female, no one is interested in her, and the cocks only preen
with each other.

This behavior has made me upset.

Any advices?

Thanks,

I always seperate the sexes ten weeks before breeding starts, this will break any bonds

Are you colony breeding?

Typical males. They probably prefer to talk football with the boys.
