What are your thoughts on these roosters...?

[blondie34]

I have 30 chickens and 7 of them are cockerels.. I only want to keep four of them in with my girls and I will be re-homing the other three or letting them free range on our property.. out of these seven breeds what should be the most friendly four to keep in with the girls and cohabitate with other roosters? They are all around 9 weeks old and extremely friendly (minus the leghorn) .. I'm wondering about the temperament of them as fully matured roosters... here's what I've got:

-Light Brahma
-Brown Leghorn (I'm pretty sure this one is going to have to go)
-Ameraucana
-Barred Rock
-Blue Cochin
-Easter Egger
-Buff Laced Polish

(I have one of each of these listed breeds)

SO who should stay and who should go?

Leghorns make GREAT roosters usually. They are more skittish when young. Cochin's and Brahma's are on the more mild side.

But take into consideration that every bird is different and it depends on the bird not the breed.


Wish ya the best.
