I've had some roosters that were so mean that nothing I did to deter them altered their behavior. In my experience, those kinds of roosters aren't going to change no matter what you do.
It seems that even though some breeds are considered meaner than others, I'm of the opinion that it's based more on the individual rooster and not necessarily the breed. Some are laid back and some are meaner than junk yard dogs.
I think you just have to wait and see how they behave once the testosterone starts flowing. If they're challenging you, try training them, sometimes it can be very effective. If that doesn't work, you might want to consider culling and trying another.
