I have two Rooster that I raised from my incubator. One we call Blue, since we hatched them from an incubator we had put blue food color on his head, so we knew which one hatched first to see how they are coming along. The other we call Non Blue, since he didn't have any blue food coloring on him lol.
Blue always seemed nicer of the two and the last couple months the demeanor seemed to change, and being more aggressive towards us. He has been running away from us, jumping and flapping his wings and pecking at us when we would feed them in their coop. It was never a big deal and it wouldn't happen all the time. Non Blue though always seemed to kinda dominate Blue. Non Blue is also the one that crows while Blue just makes weird sounds lol
Now we just introduced two hens to them that are about 6 months old. I expected some pecking and aggressiveness towards them since they are new. But Blue seems to be very aggressive towards them and chase and peck at them when ever they got close, or would just sometimes walk up to them and chase and peck them especially the smaller of the two hens. Blue would stop when he would get close to Non Blue and sometimes Non Blue seemed like he would put himself between Blue and the hens.
Non Blue sometime does what looks like a dance, where he would take his wing and open it up towards the ground, put his head down and kinda hop like but just for a second or two. Looks like a mating dance / seizure or something lol I have seen him do this before we got the hens but only when we were around. Maybe he like us and wants to mate with us and have some kind of human / bird hybrid. lol
Also, None Blue seems to be pooping a melted chocolaty poop. Now I've read that this is normal and happens after so many poops but he seems to be doing this regularly.

So may questions are is Blue being to aggressive towards the hens? One of the Roosters will eventually become dinner anyway just haven't decided which one is going to stay. But we are leaning towards Non Blue.
Is Non Blue's dance or whatever thing it's doing normal and is Non Blue poop look ok and why is he doing it regularly?
Any other concerns I should be aware of?
