Production blue Rooster personality?

[heopdyke]

I have a production blue rooster who just turned 3 months old. I haven’t found a tone of information on this breeds personality in rooster but from what I see in hens they are great. I wanted to see if anyone has experience with this breed as a rooster and what their temperament is like. I know every rooster is an individual. Just want to know if they are jerks or not. He is my massive boy at just 12 weeks. He towers over my girls.

He was sold to me as a sapphire gem which I read they are sometimes called that but he looked nothing like a sapphire gem chick and still doesn’t . He was a solid black chick

Well they Vary so much!!!!! Especially newer breeds... I just bought some whiting true blue pullets and every single one of them is a different color LOL

You've answered your own question.
Only time will tell if he'll be a 'jerk' or not.
Can have as much, or more, to do with how the keeper handles them than breed.
His hormones will start running high pretty soon.
Have you had a cock/erel before?

I have never owned a cockerel before but I have been doing a lot of research about them. If you have an tips on stopping aggressive behavior let me know! I am just preparing myself if it happens. I’m hoping he will be a gentlemen.
