If there is a roo in a flock is he always the dominant one? Would a hen ever dominate over a rooster?

A young rooster will be dominated by any hen older than he, until he is close to a year old, then he will be "Da Man". Even a bantam will dominate a big hen when he matures. Hope I answered your question........Pop
 
Thanks Pop! It answered my question but still left me with the "are any of my polish roosters" question. I put a mature hen in and she took top spot but the polish are not but about 6 months old so still a wait of time.
Thanks!

Ahhh, you didn`t ask the Polish question. If you post a few pics, I`m sure someone here can spot the cockerals, otherwise, on a Polish, guess you could look for pointy saddle fethers.......Pop
