What is the KINDEST breed of bantam rooster?

[fushalilly]

as in kindness towards hens and people?

 

[Becky_H]

My vote's going for bantam orps, brahma, or cochins.

Silkie, Cochin, or OEGB.

 

[Year of the Rooster]

I agree on Silkies and Cochins. My Sebright rooster is also nice, but not all of them are.

Never have had a problem from my silkies, mille fleur d'uccle or Japanese.

My pyncheon bantams are little sweethearts. I love them and even the roos take care of each other. Very cute!

I've also had bantam ameraucana, which were very feisty, aggressive roos towards people, but took good care of their hens. And I've had silkies, with mixed results. Some roos were nice and others not so nice and flogged me.

I think with most breeds, there are always exceptions to the rule.

Salmon Faverolles (standard) and d'Uccles are very sweet.

 

[Sonoran Silkies]

Most silkies; all brahmas; araucanas

 

[Southerngirl]

Just from my own experience: Silkies, Black Japanese, and Cochins .

 

[chickNjake]

Silkies, Cochins, Faverolles, and Brahmas
