Hi all! New to the world of chickens and looking for some input. I know it’s still pretty early to tell, but any guesses as to how many rooster’s are in this flock? We have 4 Australorps and 2 Welsummers (6 was old). I think 2 or 3 of my Australorps are roosters. Two of them are always fighting. They look like they’re doing an intense slow motion dance before they attack. My Welsummers have very rounded tail feathers which I was told can be an indicator of a hen? We also have 6 Wyandotte’s that we’re sold as pullets (4 wks old).

The other Welsummer not pictured looks the same as these 4, so I guess I pulled the short straw and got 5 cockerels out of batch of 6??! 😫
