He looks like a Marans.

He might be a black copper maran, but I can't see if he has featherd feet.

Yes he does have feathered feet.

 

[Ebony Rose]

He's beautiful but... if he cannot behave then you may consider inviting him FOR dinner.

Then he is a BLCM.

He's so pretty! It's a shame he's agressive. Are you going to keep him?

Black Copper Maran.
I like to pin aggressive roosters using my foot. Be sure to have tall rubber boots on, stick your foot out when he comes at you, and he'll start flogging your foot. Then hop towards him trying to pin him against the fence or corner. Then when they realize that attacking your boot isn't stopping you from coming at them, they try to run, either this or you get them against the fence. I usually get mine against the fence. Then reach down the grab him. Gloved hands is best. Place him on his side and pin his head using your finger. For very aggressive roosters, I flick them in the head, and pull at their feathers, simulating pecking and feather pulling like a dominant rooster.
Repeat this each time he tries to flog you. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Just make sure that everyone going into the coop is doing this, or it makes it much harder to teach.

Believe me I have thought of that. Especially when my legs are all scratched. I bring a broom in the pen with me just in case he gets aggressive.

Great information. I will try it. I am usually the only one going into the coop so hopefully he will behave himself.
