Find The Roos

[skeleroo]

I'm trying to cut down the number of roos I've got right now as they are tearing up my hens, but there are some that I can't be quite sure of and others that may be favorites of mine and I'm really hoping are girls. Anyone want to have a go at helping me spot the roos? I'd much appreciate it!

Agree with first poster.

How old are these supposed to be? You have a lot of obvious boys unfortunately.

They're all less the 6 months. The hens aren't laying yet.

In the first picture with the 3, the white chicken with orange breast, what indicators do you see that it's a roo? I had suspicions but I'd like to know why. I don't see pointy feathers.

Color pattern on the wings red/orange patches indicate males, faded hackle pattern on the neck and very thick legs.
