My Silver Seabright rooster, I have named him Taz, for Tasmanian Devil, he is quite a feisty little guy. His tail feathers are getting longer, he is a very flashy looking guy. The hens aren't very impressed with him as of yet, but I think they will realize he will protect them. He has a nice loud crow. Since I have over 20 hens, I usually see each rooster hanging out with a different group of hens.
Sir Olliver in attack position, yep, he is another attack rooster, but luckily due to his small size this isn't so scary as when I had a big rooster attacking me. This little guy is taking his job very seriously, my husband said the little guy attacked his shoes too when he walked through the chicken yard. He sometimes attacks my shoes, only problem is I almost stepped on him today when he got in my way and I didn't notice it. He watches very closely what I do, he attacks the bucket, the towels, but he starting to relax a bit now, maybe he is realizing he is going a little overboard with his protectiveness, I try to toss him a treat every time I go out and he runs up to me, maybe he will figure out I am not a threat. Roosters are really very interesting, and I am glad I got this little trio of mini roosters, they aren't much of a threat to the hens, and I get all the crowing and entertainment of roosters without having to be afraid of them.

Beautiful chickens. I love the Seabrights. I think they are my favorite chickens of all time; not only are they gorgeous, they have delightful personalities. None of my roosters are aggressive, I was surprised to read that you have an attack Seabright.
