You cannot train a rooster to stop mating with the hens. You can caponize the rooster by removing the testes and he will lose interest in mating. Chickens don't train really well and trying to train then not to do something instinctive is not going to work.

What time of year do roosters mate with hens?

Roosters are able to mate anytime of the year, but it's the hens that have to be willing to accept them that counts. Hens begin to lay eggs when the photoperiod (that's how long the sun stays in the sky during a single 24 hour period) gets longer, i.e., spring time. Since the term between copulation and egg development is short, roosters are able to breed hens in the spring time to encourage fertilization of eggs, which give chicks.


Will a buff orpington rooster mate with a white leghorn and what will the chick look like?

Unless your rooster is extremely choosey, yes, absolutely. Most roosters will be more than happy to mate with pretty much any breed of hen, unless the size difference is too great. However, in a big enough flock, most roosters will have favorites, and will usually (try to) mate with them a bit more than the others, though he will almost certainly mate with the other hens as well, unless there are just too many. In that case, it would be good to get a second rooster.
