Hens are Roosters??

I am sad. It seems that the 6 hens I've been raising for 14 weeks are possibly 5 roosters!

I'm hoping that you experts out there can confirm this for me

2 in question below:

I'd say you have 2 hens (#1 and #3) and the rest are boys. Sorry!

Well, that makes me feel a little bit better. I sent the pictures to the gal I bought them from in December and she told me they were all roosters. This is my first experience with raising chickens and I saw all 5 of them crowing this morning. The only quiet one is my RIR.

If all 5 were crowing then all 5 are roosters .
#3 is the only one i'm not sure of #1 is a bit hard to tell also.
The others are roosters.

You're sure all 5 were crowing? The first one looks more girlish without the pointiness to the hackles? A side picture of that one is good if you are still uncertain.

I posted more pics of the 2 in question under a new post

Thanks!
