Mean silkie bantam rooster?

It's a rooster. Despite the way some describe the breed there will be nasty bunches. Just the way the dice roll I suppose.
 
Pick him up and hold him like a football. Walk around all the hens and tell him what a good boy he is. Works for me.
 
My blue roo has begun to bite when we reach into the cage. He isn't mean beyond that. I'm guessing he doesn't see us at first because of his crest? He seems gentle normally. I hope he stays that way.
 
Let me say this first.....I LOVE my Silkies. But I'll tell ya...the roosters are evil little buggers! If it weren't for hatching chicks and selling eggs, I wouldn't own a Silkie roo. I honestly think that at some point, they all turn nasty.

Example...I have a black Silkie roo that was raised in my house as an only chick. We bathed him, loved him, and my son used to pull him around in his wagon. That rooster was spoiled rotten! Now he's out in the coop with the others, and at least once a week he'll try to tag me when I go in the pen.
