Hello! After my last thread I decided to get rid of my rooster but I couldn't bring myself to kill him/let someone else do it.so I found him a home with someone who said they wouldn’t kill him(even tho he is a jerk) however I sill need a rooster for my hens.but I would like to get a breed that’s nicer/less aggressive. but still is able to keep up with breeding.any suggestions on what breed to get?
 
I will always recommend Buff Orpington. They are docile and sweet.
That depends on your hens though. If you have small hens, it's probably best to choose a smaller breed, as buff orps are kinda chubby.
 
For bantams, I suggest Belgian quail d'anvers. I had two boys, (sold one and still have one) that are just sweet hearts , for standards try maybe a Pheonix? Ornamental and mine is a complete gentleman
