**IF** he is a good protector for the hens and **IF** he was a good representation of the breed, I would keep him around. He can be broken of his habits since he is still young.

I broke one for a friend that was having the same issues. She brought him to me for a month and by the end of the month, he was a gentleman again. Every time he would act up, I would pick him up and put him under my arm and carry him around for a while then put him down EACH TIME. The key is to be consistent. This teaches him to submit and that you are the boss.

I will give it a try! Wish me luck!

They are meaty though. I've looked at my favorite hen, who is also the largest, and often thought what a great meal she'd make. And she has a name and everything!
