Has he ever been aggressive at all before that?
Did anything change at all when he started going after you?

@Tookie he was showing a little bit not that bad and I haven't changed anything and no I usually have a stick broom or my dog with me but if I don't he will go after me I know when he was raised the breeders had to hit him with the broom as a younger Cockerel he was showing some aggressive behavior then to

Sounds like he's always had aggression issues, and it hasn't showed up much until now.

Here's some threads you can read that may help you.

You won't know till you try it, so I say you can give it a shot.
If you think its best to rehome, then do that. But if you're willing to put in some time and effort to work on him and see if he'll get better, you could do that.
Do whatever you think is best though.

I think it would be best to rehome, he sounds pretty bad and you've worked with him a lot, and you've given him plenty of chances.
