I have 4 hens and 3 of the 4 are trying to mate with a single hen

All look like males to me actually. I see what looks like male saddling on the barred bird. I'm assuming that's the light.
How old are they?
Are these your only birds?
 
A few days ago we discovered that 3/4 hens are trying to be a rooster. So that means that all of them are trying to mate with my only other hen, and since she has been very scared of them. Not just that but they usually attempt it every time they get close.

I would really like to stop this but the only thing I can think of is separation. I dont have a problem with that I just would like to attempt something else before that.

All advice is appreciated!
I just checked and the eggs are fertilized ap at least is proof that I have a rooster if for whatever reason all these people telling me they are ,are wrong

Omg I made it sound like I'm ignorant I meant to say if incase everybody is wrong (somehow),this is proof at least
 
I promise that everyone here was wishing for pullets. Culling is a least favorite option around here, but necessary for overall flock health and happinesses
