I had a flock of 7 hens and 1 rooster, and all was great until a couple months ago. My rooster who was 8-9 months all of a sudden got very aggressive. He began attacking my family members, friends, and he even attacked me sometimes. I tried to work with him, and some days he was better than others, but every time I went in there I had to watch my back because he would randomly attack. I finally had to cut my losses and shot him. I'm real upset about it, but he was beginning to be too much of a hazard. I plan on getting a different rooster in the future sometime for breeding, but how are they supposed to act? What is considered acceptable behavior? And what is the best ways to put them back in their place? Thank you
