I have 12 hens (Easter Eggers, Barred Rock, and Brown Leg Horns) and 3 roosters. One rooster is a brown leg horn, which I will keep. The other two are an Easter Egger. Both Easter Eggers won't let me pet them. One will eat out of my hand but pecks very hard and pinches my hand. He will come up to me but runs when I try to pet him. The other Easter Egger just stays away. All my chicks are about 12 weeks old now. I want to keep an Easter Egger rooster to eventually raise chicks, but I don't want an aggressive rooster. My question is which one do I keep?
