I had a cockerel raised by a broody before and he was also very sweet like yours. But, eventually, he picked two girls in the flock and over mated them to the point they were about to go into winter with no feathers on their backs. I kept waiting for a molt to fix the problem, but it never came. I would look at them and could see their featherless wings. In the interest of my flock, I had to get rid of him. My girls came back to life and are beautiful to this day.
I haven't had great luck with cockerels and roosters, but I am very committed this time. One or hopefully both of these cockerels are a permanent part of my flock.

When they get too bare-backed, separate the rooster until the back feathers grow back in. Also, separate the rooster when the hens are in molt.
