The Wyandotte is a pullet. The barred rocks are cockerels.

Thank you! Now my next concern is their safety and when to remove the cockerels from being together. I don’t want them to hurt each other.

If they’re all cockerels, with no female say around, they will be fine. If the Wyandotte does turn out to be a pullet, then you need to separate her, or there will be fights and she will get over mated.

Thank you! If the Wyandotte is a pullet at what age would you say I should separate her from the 3 cockerels? They are around 8 weeks and the three cockerels already fight quite a bit. I am trying to watch and seeing if it's normal pecking order fighting or if its because they are cockerels. One of them definitely crowed this morning.

Probably about 12 weeks. When they start hitting puberty.
