Hen/Rooster ratio?

Here are my suspects. The brown/black/white EE is almost certainly a rooster! He just hasn't crowed.

The 2 golden EEs have some saddle looking feather, the same with the red, but they look more female to me

Your guesses are spot on.

First is your cockerel. The others are female.
Perfect!! Our first rooster fell prey to a neighbor dog and so when we got 8 chicks we hoped one would turn out to be a rooster because we didnt want to have to quarantine and introduce a lone bird.

I am still a little worried because I've never had an aggressive rooster but I love the order a rooster adds to the flock.
