Hi all! Newbie here!

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
The three in the front are 100% cockerels. The ones in the back so far look like pullets.

Have to agree with a couple other greeters...the 3 in front do appear to be cockerels.

There are various ways of handling that situation. You can rehome a couple of them. Or create a rooster flock. Or add more hens.

Thank you! OH MYLANTA! Whats a chicken mama to do? If I have at least 3 cockerels and only 7 other pullets, what are the options??? They are currently in a 500 +\- SF run and have a 81 SF coop? Any suggestions?

I believe @N F C laid out all but one option... put them in a grow out pen then process them when they are large enough.

Hi and welcome to the flock. I am the last person to ask and with the least expertise here as I am still trying to train my eye to identify genders, but I agree you have 3 handsome cockerels there. I can (finally!) see the long pointy saddle feathers on the hip bone area in front of the tail. Pullets don't have that. It's very visible on the two standing in profile to the right of center.

Thank you all so much for your feedback! So appreciated and thankful of this community! Now to figure out what to do! Lol! My original plan was to have a flock of all pullets! ‍
