Bantam hen still lonely?

yeah my silkie aint got tact either. jus jumps on em wihtout buying em dinner first. He doesnt even tid bit for them. But the hens arent letting him stay on yet. they are only like 4 months old now.
I have to say that the hens are my favorites. But this little rooster I've got is hard to beat. He is all personality and as rough as he can be on hens, he's also always calling them over to eat a bug (or a lizard) that he finds and kills for them...he doesn't eat it! He calls his hen over so she can eat it! I used to have him in with a few other hens, and it was the same...he's looking out for them - even though he physically abuses them. lol.
He's a good match with my Sex Links hen - because she is literally 3 times his size...lol

I have a porcelain bantam though, who is one suave little man. Im holding some of the hens now and he drops one little tiny wing and shudders up to us. lol.

The more I think about it, I've realized that I can't compare my bantam rooster to my bantam hens. The hens have a much larger vocabulary - they have a sound that clearly expresses every emotion.
But my rooster talks back to me! Every time I greet him (calling his name), he says - OOOOOooooh. LOL And whenever I sneeze, he calls back "HUB-HUB-HUB-hub-hub!" And he only makes this sound when I sneeze.
