Thank you for the depressing news. Lol. Hatched these all at the same time, EHAL, and up until a few weeks ago was sure I had 2 hens.

All the birds pictured in this thread are definitely males. They are very handsome!

Yep, three cockerels.
Just so you know for next time, see how his feathers on the neck are long and skinny compared to the ones you know are girls, that's one sign.
Then look at the feathers on his back sort of where the tail starts, see how they again are longer than on the hen and sort of hang down, another sign.
Then of course there is the big giveaway, crowing
Sorry you didn't get more girls.
