He is 4 & 1/2 months old. I think he is still figuring out who he is right now, the "teenage years". I know some roosters are mean, some aren't, some are protective and some aren't. At what age can I tell what kind of guy he is going to be? Right now he crows well, not all day, only in the morning, a few for times for an unknown reason. Once or twice a day he will argue or have some type of competition with the 2 other roosters that live a few houses away, can last for many minutes. He is still learning to mate with the hens, i haven't seen him do it successfully. His dance is changing a lot and he doesn't bite their neck feathers anymore after his failed dance, he just accepts they don't get it and wanders off, before he would bite them and have a tantrum. Though now i have noticed their tail feathers are looking pretty ragged, i think he is trying to mate them, when im not around. He also seems oblivious to dangers, a couple of hawks flew by and he didn't notice or did and just didn't think of them as dangerous. There was also a stray cat, that would lean up against the other side of the fence and watch them. I was outside though, so perhaps he sees me as the protector, i did chase the cat away in the end. I don't expect him to protect he hens from danger, but i mean, like a warning call or something would be nice. I thought he would try to find food for his girls, he is actually quite rude at the moment. He chases the girls all over the yard and steals their food. Today one girl caught this little snake/lizard thing he chased her down a fought her for it. He quickly won and ate it. She was so upset, she kept letting out these very loud growling like sounds after that.......
