Personally, I would keep the Ameracauna roo in a heartbeat.I ended up with two cockerels in the batch of chicks I have been raising. They are both about 4 months old now. The Dominique is the dominate one and he has just begun crowing in the past week. Both of them are calm around me thus far but the EE has been frisky with the pullets to the point of trying to grab and corner any as they enter the run. There are 13 pullets that were raised with them. I am leaning towards the Dominique because he seems the most calm with the girls and it might be nice to raise a few of my own. The flock is mixed, dominique, EE, RIR, Black Astro, RLBW, LB.

He's much prettier in my opinion, and he will settle as he gets older, I have a EE mix rooster and he has been the best flock protector out of all the males.
If he's not aggressive toward you, that's amazing, "none" of my roosters in with the hens are aggressive, not one itty bitty bit!
