Rooster doesn't like Barred Rocks

My rooster Pepper prefers the 3 white hens I have. Maybe put him in a little cage with a barred rock. He won't have no choice but to like her. Change hens every day for a week, then let him out. Maybe that will work.

Maybe pen them together, but I wouldn’t cage them together. She wouldn’t have any room to get away from him if he picks on her.
 
I have the opposite problem, my roo prefers the BR's. So much so that I had to separate them b/c they were getting the bald spots on their backs from his attention. The other 10 hens were virtually untouched, yes he has 14 to choose from and only likes the BR's. Since he can't get to the BR's, he does go for the others but he seems to still want the BR's, he paces back and forth around their pen.
