I have heard that if a rooster is raised by a mother chicken that they tend to be more scared of humans and less likely to view them as a threat to taking their flock. It seems little bit backwards but I was told to get a rooster that was raised by a mother chicken and they will be nice to my kids. I searched around and found one someone was giving away. We have had him for 6 months and he is great. Pays no attention to our kids, pretty scared of humans, just does his thing. Great protector (has fought a hawk in our yard) and has a few offspring in out flock as well.
It may just have been luck, who knows.
