I would never take an aggressive male. In my opinion, it’s not a good idea to try to rehome one either. Some people don’t know what “aggressive” means until they get a taste of it themselves. Not only that, but now I wouldn’t want to propagate his genes either.Hi.
I'm going to try to rehome Picotee, my Sebright rooster. He's become aggressive towards me (and only me), and it's interfering with my ability to care for my hens.
He's 2 years old, never been sick or injured. He's very good to his hens (although he doesn't get along with my Barred Rock) and does a great job alerting the flock to hawks (and robins and finches and airplanes and falling leaves). I think he'd do much better in someone else's flock.
Also, I will gladly provide the feed of your choice for him for the remainder of his life.
Also, if you know of sanctuaries that will take him, please let me know. I'm in Nevada County, CA.

Obviously, these are just my rules for my flock. I am not targeting you, it’s just something I follow myself. All aggressive males, once in my flock, stay for their entire life…and until death. I don’t like to let genes or behaviors like that get out.
Obviously, you did a good job by mentioning it. I just hope that whoever takes him knows what they are getting themselves into. Good luck rehoming
