After keeping a 3 month roo for a couple of months and having him think of me as his personal flogging equipment, I traded him off to my daughter for a nicer one. It's been several weeks now since the trade and I couldn't be happier with this new rooster!
He does a pretty good job looking after his 2 girls and about the only fault I see with him is he's always the first one in the coop at dusk. Where the other one would herd the girls into the coop, this one goes on in, gets all comfy and then calls to them. Kinda reminds me of my ex-husband.
I recently started letting them free range for a couple of hours once or twice a week. Yesterday, while I was sitting on my front porch swing, he mosies on over to the porch with his girls tagging behind. The next thing I knew, he flew up on the porch banisters and starts crowing as loud as he could. Then the girls had to try it.
Before I could get my cell phone camera ready, he had jumped on down but the girls stayed up on the banister for quite sometime before he called them to follow him. Love my new rooster and his ladies. 
Mama to 2 hens and 1 rooster, 4 dogs~~~2 rescued greyhounds from the racetrack, a hound mix and a rat terrier, both strays. Newest pet addition...4 hermit crabs...bought 4 more....total of 8 now.
Also "Mimi" to 5 grandkids, who keep me busy going to their school soccer, basketball, volleyball games, community and school plays and dance recitals.

Ours will bring everyone back to the run at dusk and wait until all but two are in the coop and roosted before he joins them. The other two simply refuse to go to roost prior to that, which gave him no end of aggravation the first two weeks we had him (he'd keep jumping up/down from the roost and going out to try and get them in the coop and they'd have none of it). He finally gave up and just called them once everyone else is settled.
