I’m so excited to have chicks again, but I drive myself mad worrying if I’ll have to find a new home for roosters. What do you think?

First, purchased as an Assorted Colored Egg Layer (6+ weeks):

Then we have 2 SLW (about 5.5 weeks), both look similar to me with one having a slightly more red comb:

Then there are 2 EE’s (5 weeks) with interesting coloring. Some people say red/orange mean rooster but idk:
No. 1

No. 2 was harder to photograph.

And last is a BPR that is probably around 5 weeks. I thought all along black with white bars, but this picture worries me:

Thank you for any expertise or guesses!
 
Beautiful birds! Congrats and welcome back to the family.

The only one I'd keep my eye on is the first pictured SLW. And the only reason I'd say this is because of the waddles and red comb and also the faster developing pointy hackles. But still to early to say for sure.

Everyone else looks like they will lay eggs for you. 👍
