There are five cockerels and one pullet in those pictures, assuming they're different birds.
Clear individual shots of all 9 would be great.

yup, they are different, that's what I thought.. oh dear. and 6 males and 3 females will definitely create a problem, correct ?

Won't be much fun for the girls.
I'd separate the girls from any boys you intend to keep.

An absolutely massive problem. You don't have much longer until things get bad for the three pullets. I have one rooster with ten hens right now and they're still getting defeathered I would keep one male maximum. Also individual pictures would be great, just to be sure
