How to get a roo to be nice...alright, here it comes!!!
Spend a LOT of time with him. Carry him around, feed him from your hand, and correct his every wrong move. I recommend holding him upside down if he tries jumping you. It doesn't hurt him, and it shows him who's bigger. Bribe him with treats, and teach him that good things come when he's being nice. He's still young enough to learn, so be careful what you let him get away with. I made a big mistake with one of my roos....a cockerel jumping at your shoe is cute and entertaining...a cock stabbing you with his spurs is not. It is easier to train a cockerel than to fix a cock...I should but that in my signature
