How many roosters do you have???

I have 3. Two are Rhode Island Reddish, and 1 is an *interesting* mutt mix.

Now, the question is, how is your hen to rooster ratio? I have only 7 hens.
I'm trying to rehome 2 of the roosters. It's just not going well
 
I have 3.

Our Gold-laced Wyandotte (who was supposed to be a she!).

Our Splash Andalusian (who was hatched here under our broody).

Our Partridge Silkie (who's just too cute for his own good).



I only have room for 2 as I have 23 girls. We cannot make a decision on whom to rehome.

I love the size of the GLW, the Andalusian was born here!! and, well, only Silkie lovers know that you just can't get rid of him.

I'll need to count em, but Im betting I have an easy 30 roos, but then I have over 200 hens, I have 25 different breeds, most are in their own breeding pens. ................
 
1 Welsummer, 4 Blue orpingtons, 1 splash orpington, 1 Splash Marans, 1 Black Marans, 1 Black Copper Marans, 1 Blue Silkie, 4 Bantam Cochins(1 blue, 1 black, 1 splash frizzle, 1 splash), 1 Buff Orpington, 1 Rhode Island Red, 2 Blue Ameraucanas, 1 Black Ameraucana...that all I can think of right off the top of my head, I may have more.

I knew that there were more... a cuckoo marans roo.

One BO roo who is a wonderful flock rooster, and gorgeous!
One fiesty little crowing maniac buff silkie roo, he would like to be a tough guy, but you can't take a three pound puff ball seriously. He and his girl may be rehomed to my neighbor's MIL, who has raised chickens for years and fell in love with the squirt. His noisy little highness, while adored, is not completely appropriate for my neighborhood.
