I have found over the years that it is extremely hard to get rid of roosters. In late spring the internet is saturated with people wanting to get rid of their roosters. I love roosters, so I keep all my boys that are hatched on my farm. I have a good space for them to run so I have plenty of room. That being said, one thing I have implimented lately here is to form bachelor pens. I currently have 20 roosters in 4 bachelor pens.
Contratry to popular opinion, roosters when keep by themselves away from the girls do cohabitate quite well. As long as their are no hens in the pen with them there is noting to fight over. I keep quite a few of my boys for breeding so a few of my pens are my breeding stock, the other ones are just extra roosters.
I am not sure if that helps your situation but it has been the answer for my extra boys.
