So recently my chicken has started free ranging, she is only one and her age is 1 too, she is overall healthy, the place I free range in has an established flock with an Aseel rooster and two unknown breeds, Aseel is being the most aggresive and attacks my chicken randomly (my chicken doesn't even give a shit about his flock), is he really attacking or is this normal behaviour of roosters?

Define attacking.

Some people I've read manage to keep game fowl with other breeds but in general it isn't considered a wise option.
 
Pecks sometines near the eyes, he climbs on top of her, maybe like mating, and when I release her from him he looks at me like as is he is going to make me a sandwhich and eat me.
That sounds more like he is trying to keep her in his flock and steal her from you.
Chickens peck. That's how they touch one another. It does not mean that he's trying to hurt her unless it is very hard or he keeps really slamming the back of her head while he is mounted on her.
Does your hen fight, scream, panic or run away from him when he interacts with her?

She doesn't scream or panic like I said she doesn't give a shit about me or his flock, but she does run away when the beating gets really hard.
