Show off your roosters

It may have been a Rhode Island Red. I have two Rhode Island roosters, and they are the sweetest I have ever had. I have had about 7 different Rhode Island roosters, and 3 out of the seven were MEAN! I think all breeds of roosters you will get a mean tempered Rooster. You have about a 60% chance they will turn out mean, and 40% nice. That's just from my experience anyways. Also roosters under a year old go through an aggresive teenage stage, and that's perfectly normal. Once they are a year old they either grow out of the mean teenager stage, or they get worse. I haven't really ever found a way to make a rooster sweet tempered. It really just depends on the rooster.

Other people may have different opinions or they may disagree with me, but this is from my personal experience with roosters.
cool! thanks. I can handled small roosters, But if they are bigger than me forget it !!

with me I have had probably about 600 or more roosters including the ones that have died and only 3 out of all the roosters I have ever raised where mean. I think it has to do with how you treat the roosters or how they fit into the rest of the flock. because the ones that are where mean in my flock where on the bottom of the peaking order and non of the hens liked them. so I think it is has to do with insecurity about them selfs and so when they do pick on us they feel better. that is why I show the the rooster whos boss and that works like a charm. sometimes my other roosters will get out of line but I always put them back in there place and it helps. they all respect me now.
