Boy.

That's what we thought but are second guessing now. We have 7 roosters (including this one) but it's the only one that gets attacked constantly. They won't leave it alone.

You could put the bullied rooster in with the hens.

But I don't want it to mate with the hens just in case...thoughts?

It looks like a boy because of the size of the wattles and comb. Roosters fight a lot so this rooster could be the least dominant rooster maybe.

What breeds of hens? They should be too fast for him to mate them, unless they’re also cornish x.
