temperment is very much attached to their breeding.
I didn\'t at first realize it and was under the opinion that Ameraucanas were a very docile breed...but have later learned differantly, once we brought in stock for other breeders.
I have learned from the others that we don\'t want a totaly laid back rooster, ( thye have said t leads to breeding problems),but getting one that is not mean, or at least not agressive towards people can also be a challange.
We have lots of kids in & out around here, so our rooster\'s have to pass the \"Kid-friendly\" test before hey can stay on as a breeder. even kid friendly roosters can be terribly agressive towards other roosters..but some are not.
We currently have a silver father & son combo loose with the flock, and an additional buff orpington and a russian orlorf rooster with them, so far they all get along..but soon we will be seperating into,breeding pens, then they might not be so happy with the girls we pick for them!
