Centrarchid, I agree with your take on my late- developing bad boys. BUT, I'm not the only person here, and I have more than one rooster always. Whatever the reasons, human aggression is not tolerated here. Twice, a rooster who behaved badly here, rehomed as an only rooster in another flock, turned out fine. Both times they were sent off to be dinner, with full disclosure, and were kept rather than eaten. Worked out well for all concerned! They also didn't reproduce in their new digs, all the better. Mary
