Here's a better picture of Jackie (or jack?)

Still looks like a Production Red cockerel. He's packing the black patterning of a New Hampshire.

I agree you have two pullets and the rest are cockerels.

You're going to have to make some decisions about managing those numbers. You simply can not keep that few females with that many males. Your pullets will be harassed and over mated and life in the coop will be pretty horrible for them. Not to mention the possibility of your males fighting among themselves.

Your choices are basically to either get rid of the cockerels or keep them as freeloading pets, in a separate pen from the pullets. No guarantee they won't fight, but with no females to stir up extra hormones it's much less likely.

Thank you for everyone's help! I was awfully hopeful! Lol!!

You could always grow the roosters in a separate pen to about 16 weeks and have a few tasty dinners. I had to do the same several times with heavy rooster flocks.

It is good if you have another smaller batch coming up for a few more girls hopefully. That last pic you posted of Jack is all male, huge comb, giant rooster girth on the legs.

Update!!



Red and Jack are doing great! We decided to only keep two boys and kept our two girls! Since we have added 9 (sexed as pullets) babies!

Glad they are doing well, I hope all of your "pullets" end up girls to make it easy.

the white one with red on its back might be a red laced wyandotte
