Hello, guys!

I'm just starting my journey to learn about chickens. I'm specially interested in their behavior since I got them as pets but apart the rooster - since he crows now... - I can't see if my Cemani will be a rooster or a hen. Well, my yellow one, which breed I also don't know, I think it's a female, 'cause she's never fighting the others. She's just running from them... She's really docile.
I suspect my rooster is something mixed with a Rhode Island... Could you tell me?

My yellow one, no idea at all.

My Cemani is confusing me. Hen? Rooster? It clearly has a STRANGE behavior of raising his neck feathers and trying to fight my sweet yellow (poor her). I think he gave up to fight our big Auri since he's 1kg bigger. That's what makes me confused. If it's a male, why he's not as big as Auri (the rooster) since both had the same size when hey came to my home? He kept Sol's (yellow one) size. If it's a hen, so, why is she fighting???

Thank you for reading my explanation!! It's nice to be here!

:welcome The red bird and the Ayam Cemani are both cockerels. The beige bird may also be a cockerel. How old are they?
 
I believe they are all mixed breeds. The red one is definitely a cockerel, and I suspect the Ayam Cemani too. The other one could go either way right now.
Thank you so much for your helping me! I'm agreeing more and more with you about my Cemani. Somehow, my red one cockerel only fights my Cemani, not the other one.

I took some photos today from his tail. I think you're all right and it's a bit too much for a female... What do you think?

About their breed: I found out that most of the chickens selled on shops are some "colonial" (?) mixed breed from a company called Embrapa, which is the brazilian's research in agriculture company... They could be an Embrapa 051, 041, 031 etc. I don't know, some may be mixed breed with these: - apparently, the most common ones - Isa Brown, Brahma, and New Hampshire...
