Usually the rooster will ignore the chicks unless he is a particularly aggressive male.
The mother hen will guard the chicks but cannot keep them safe all the time. If you have space to separate them do so. If the birds are free range then you will have more problems from aggressive hens than from the rooster.
A father fowl is called a rooster or a cockerel.
No. The bull should be separate from the heifer and her calf simply because it's less stress for her and enables her to mother up to her calf without having to be getting after the bull if he tries to interfere with her.
To safely catch an escaped rooster, approach slowly and calmly, using a towel or blanket to gently throw over it to prevent it from flying away. Carefully pick up the rooster by securely holding its wings against its body to avoid getting pecked. Keep a firm grip on the rooster and bring it back to its coop or pen.
No, the chicken does not have to be broody before putting the rooster in to lay fertile eggs. The presence of a rooster can stimulate hens to lay eggs, but broodiness is a natural instinct in hens and can occur with or without a rooster.
The males may not intentionally harm the piglets but may get a little aggressive and bite or step on the piglets. It is not recommended to keep a litter with the father and the mother as there are usually too many in a litter, space may become limited and they would be at greater risk of getting stepped or laid on. It is best to keep the mother in a medium sized pen, one that is big enough for the mother to lay down and not squish the babies, away from other larger pigs.
If you have hens, and a rooster, no matter what you will have babies. You can keep them in a separate pen, and it won't happen. Or, you could fix the rooster, but then it won't be a rooster any more. It's logic.
A pen.

Ofcourse not.
When a mother first has a litter she will not know how to take care of the babies and will most likely eat them.. it is best to remove the male rabbit from the pen when a female is about to have babies or he will most likely kill them and prevent the mother from focusing on her young
A female swan is called a 'pen'; the male is a 'cob' and as you know, the babies are 'cygnets'...
Cob babies are called cygnets, while pen babies are called signets.
to show that they are happy with you and other things around them
Try searching that at BackYard Chickens. Good luck readers.
A 5 foot by 5 foot is good for the 4 of them.
A baby pen is commonly known as a playpen or a playard. It is a safe enclosed area where babies can play and rest.
You must give the lollipop to Louis and he will leave his pen on the table.
