I've got my first cockerel who's testing boundaries.
The only reason I'm keeping him, is he was sick with something when he was younger and I want to see if it comes back.
At the moment, all he's doing is looking at me with a look in his eye, and a few times has pounced on my foot and hand; all things that I can deal with.
I try to show him who's boss, which works most of the time.
My question is, is it likely to get worse, or will it stay the same or get better.
I know there are a lot of threads on cockerel behaviour, but I want a specific answer to the question, so I can prepare myself.
He's around 20 to 30 week old, if it makes a difference, and lives with some 15 week old cockerels.
