You know, I think with roosters you never know if they will be gentle or not. The rooster that did the most damage to me personally was a speckled fluffy Cochin Bantie.
They are known for not being mean, but again, with roosters you never know.
So far, my Welsummer roo is a good guy.

Hatching is a lot of fun.
However, buying chicks is much much cheaper. Much.
One of these days I am going to figure out the per chick cost of those I have incubated myself. I'll bet it is unreal.
