What personality does a Delaware rooster have?

I am curious about this, because I search on the web and all they say is that the hen is calm. Please tell me something, I need information !

I have an answer... you probably won't like it.
All members of a specific breed are different. You won't know what he's like until he matures.
You can make some generalities for a specific breed but there will ALWAYS be exceptions to the rule.
My Salmon Faverolles rooster is the perfect example. SF roosters are supposed to be mellow, laid back guys who take great care of their flocks and are not human aggressive. That is all true for my guy except he has flogged me more times than I can remember.

He is all mature, I had just wanted to know what other roosters were like. Thank you for the info though!

My Delaware was the nice boy of the 2 cockerels I had a the time. I kept the not nice boy because he was exhibiting early protective instincts towards the flock instead of just wanting to mate all the pullets.

My boy is very.. uh.. let me say.. fertile. He wants to jump on the pullets that are what, less than half his weight/size? We haven’t had any big hawks or killers around here yet so I’m not sure how he would protect the flock. He jumps on even the molting hens, and he sticks around the hens more than the pullets.
