Welcome to BYC! I'm sorry that you had a rough start with having chickens. Don't blame yourself. It happens all the time.

Just because their comb is flipped it doesn't automatically make it a rooster. Leghorn hens often have flopped over combs and they still are hens. I've had a couple that have flopped over combs too and they lay beautiful eggs.

It still doesn't mean that they are roosters.
