Omg that sounds horrible, no there not cycling through the females. Not as in they all jump one at a time on them. It mostly just seems like the males are just communicating between each other. There are only two that do like a feather dance around the females only one really try’s to do the hole mating thing the rest just walk around there packs of girls like a formation like there protecting them but there not jumping on them yet. 3 of them aren’t showing any form of aggression. One of the big adult hens actually keeps the to males in line. I’ve seen her go after him when he was doing the feather dance. From what I’ve noticed the roosters mostly just keep look outs because I live in Florida and there are a lot of predators.
Excuse the language, but the problem I've had (and still do sometimes) is when they "gang bang" the hens. Anytime a rooster starts getting some, they all rush over and try to get some. It looks like some kind of perverted chicken orgy. A couple of roosters on one hen, roosters on rooster trying to get to the bottom of the pile where the hen is. One by one, they will finish and roll out of the pile, only to jump back in in about 30 secs. And this will go on for 5-10 mins or until they hen is just laying there near death, unless you break it up. It's not just the teenagers, the older ones do it too, but they usually only partake once. Poor hens, It's sad.
