A suggestion...ask around for someone wanting to re-home a rooster. Take some time to observe him. If he's a quiet gentleman you've saved a rooster from the stewpot and his faminly some sadness and gained a lookout for the hens.
My Giant Cochin rooster is an amicable giant. He's never been aggressive toward his hens or my little kids, dogs, etc. Rather he acutely observes and warns with body language and noises when there is danger around. I'm so very glad he's calm becasue his 1.5 inch spurs could do some damage. And he's handsome and endearing.
Check out literature on breeds that are noisier or quieter, aggressive or passive.
Or you can get 3-5 guinea hens or a llama or alpaca!
Good luck.
