Im getting a splash silkie rooster he is 2-months-old but he is becoming aggressive to the flock he has been in since he was hatched, he is even taking on the 2-year-old supper aggressive rooster named rex, rex is now doing everything he can to stay away from the younger rooster.
I don't know what to do?
What if he attacks my other chickens?
 
He may just be having a hormone surge due to his age and will probably settle down. If he is new and young and introduced to a flock of older hens, they won't stand for any of his nonsense. They'll teach him some manners around chickens. You'll have to teach him manners around humans.

I will, thank you
I have 2 Isa browns that are around 1 year old and they are at the top of the pecking order they take ages to welcome new chickens into their flock and will not stand for aggressiveness.
what worries me is my 2 Silver spangled hamburgs they are around 2 months old also but have to be very submissive because of the Isa Browns

The hamburgs will very easily be able to fly away from him if he bothers them. Make sure you've got plenty of clutter in your run, and enough space, including daytime raised perches in the outside area.
