The native Americans chose to fight with the French or the English depending upon who seemed to be the most likely to meet their needs at a particular time. The Iroquois had a long standing hostility toward the French from the time of Champlain. Most of the tribes outside of the Iroquois confederation tended to side with the French in the early stages of the French and Indian War.
Once the English succeeded in taking Fort Duquesne, the native Americans became less inclined to align themselves with the French because it appeared that the French were unable to defend their own interests.
Another motivation for the Indians to select sides was the quality of trade goods that the particular European ally could provide. In general the English were able to provide better quality product at a lower price. This was balanced against the fact that the English were much more aggressive in seeking to settle in Indian territory.
In conclusion, at different times throughout the French and Indian War various tribes aligned themselves with the side that seemed to be most likely to meet the needs of the natives.
