Thanks PorkPal. No, Woolley-Bully is a Russian Orloff. He seems to be more passive, but he's clearly the low rooster in the pecking order so that may have something to do with his temperament. I'm hoping one of my neighbors will take him - they both have hens but no rooster.
So, any suggestions how to CATCH Roto-Rooster to give him his lessons? None of my chickens are particularly humanized, they are mostly left to be chickens by themselves. Their yard is fairly large - 24x32 feet with a fair amount of stinging nettles in situ (slowly working on cutting those down for the birds to eat, hoping I can eradicate them from the run). I've always had best luck nabbing chickens in the evening when they are pretty calm, but that doesn't seem like the best time for a dominance lesson. Roto is always the last guy in the coop at night.
