I live in town so I won't be able to keep him because he is considered a nuance animalMuch like teenagers, you have to cut cockerels going through hormonal changes some slack. Thier instincts tell them to protect his flock and he'll take a bit of time to determine who and what the real threats are. It can be harder for hand raised cockerels to differentiate, sometimes they see people as part of thier flock, sometimes they'll feel like you are competition for the hen's attention. Understanding his natural instincts will go a long way if you're planning on keeping him. There's some great articles here in the learning center to help you get a start.
