I vote for number three. Is he older than number two? He looks bigger. I definitely like number two and threes chests. Tails not so much and I expect number threes is the same as two's. Number three seems to have a more horizontal wing carriage.
I'm no expert and comparing them to the pic I have hanging on my wall. Number two is nice too.
They are the same age. I think he is a bit bigger, but if it is the one I think it is...he has a high tail angle and possibly a bit of a pinched tail. Almost all my hens have pinched tails, so I definitely want a wide tail in my rooster. I'll look at him a bit more though.
Thanks for the comments

He said it scared the crap out of him for a minute. Poor chicken..... she had to have been in there 3 days, as that is the last time anyone had that door open as far as we can recall. She ran for the water and feed. I hope the gas fumes from the mowers didn't make her sick.
