By the time I can tell if a rooster is a rooster or not, will it be to late to tame as a lap chicken?? :/

You would have to handle him a lot more that you would with smaller chicks and also give him plenty of tasty treats. This usually helps.

IMO roosters are best left alone and respected. The either see you as dominant of submissive, never as friends. I wouldn't have a rooster that close to my face/eyes, ever.

The best luck I have had with roosters is if I leave them alone. I have 6 roosters and the only one who tries to peck me is the one who I nursed and helped up the roost and held all the time. Here I saved his life and he pecks me. ll my other Roos I never handled and they run from me. If I do pick them up they don't peck me or anything but they don't want to be handled. I don't know if this works or not but I have raised all these Roos and had great luck,
