Gender guess for my chicks

4 weeks old and I’m sure that more than half are cockerels

I would say 1, 3,5,6,10 and 11 are male x

And possible 8 and 9

I'm doomed my kids are going to be so mad. There’s no chance we can keep 9 roosters.

I'm unsure about #1. Numbers 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, and 11 are definitely cockerels. I think that #4 and #8 are probably cockerels, and #7 is probably a pullet. #2 looks like a definite pullet.

That is some rough luck! Trust me, even if you can, you don't want to keep that many cockerels! They'll likely fight with each other, and they will definitely over-mate the few females there are. Each male needs at the bare minimum two ladies to himself, but more is better.

What breeds are they, if you know? You could try to rehome some of the boys online. Certain breeds are easier to get rid of than others.

Most are supposed to be EE but probably barnyard mixes. I’m going to give them another week or so to sort out and then I’ll rehome all but 1 cockerel ( or all cockerels). My daughter is super attached to number 8.
We currently have 1 rooster, 6 hens, 2 pullets that are approximately 11 weeks and an order of 22 pullets shipping at the end of May.
