You need to ask one of your toughest grandkids to do you a favor and teach this rooster his place before he gets worse. If not, a neighbor kid. If not, you need to catch him and get a kid to man handle him a bunch, even if you have to tie the legs for a bit so the kid won't be afraid. If you don't get a small human to curb this, he will end up in the stew pot.

When I give new babies or eggs to some folks that only want hens, I tell them that I will take back any that become roos. When I get some back, they are the meanest things I have ever seen and take lots of work to retrain. I learn how they react to the roos and see that they inadvertently train them to be mean bosses.
