Crowing
Definitely are both roosters. The saddle feathers are the easiest way to tell especially at this age. As cherrynberry said above, a bachelor pad would be best. Looks like these two are getting along which is good.

Most of them are Japanese bantams and they each have 7 hens. Only two of them are large and they have their own girls and coops and yards on separate areas of the property. One of them is a barnavelder but he is handicapped and lives with his protector my giant red rooster.That's because he is a mixed breed who does not have a single comb. I recommend having them in a bachelor pad. 9 roosters need 100+ hens.
Okay, thats a lot better. Thanks for taking them in! Unfortunately, I cannot, for biosecurity, but that is really kind of you. Who knows where they may be without you!Most of them are Japanese bantams and they each have 7 hens.

I counted its 8 not 9. 5 are bantams then the three boys above.
Is that bad? I have no fights or stressed hens, most of my hens (the big ones)are VERY old and the only helath issues I've had have been recently, and I assume it is cause they are getting g so old.Most of them are Japanese bantams and they each have 7 hens.

Thank you. I'm a farm of misfits. My donkeys were rescued from a military base after being used for target practice, my fainting goats were being g used as predator bait in a herd of cows, and my dog was thrown from a moving car.Okay, thats a lot better.

Welsummer cockerel and marans mix cockerel. Great job with the rescue!Someone dumped two chickens, one hen and one rooster I thought. The one I think is a hen stands and walks and looks and acts like a hen, but was crowinh wierd crows, and the rooster wasn't crowing at all.
I'm working on catching them and will give them a good home. I just would like some help figuring out what they are. If this is a hen, or an odd rooster. They act like a rooster/hen. "She" stays behind him, comes when he calls for food, he stands guard over her while she dusts and scratches, etc. I'm so confused.
