Is this a leghorn?

Thank you for the welcome.
I learn as much as I can and do the best I can for all my critters.
The other thing is that I got an adult Black Copper Maren rooster to help take care of the ladies. (Coyotes around here.) He comes after me and body slams me if I walk out to the feeding area past him even when he is still "in bed" and I can't see him. I can't rearrange the set up now though working on a different one. I have to boot him in the head a couple of times and he gives up. (Soft boots.)
Also, after I took the other cockerel out and didn't return him, the rooster now watches out for the boys and not the hens so much.
The boys have to go. I want to keep 1and don't know how to decide which one. Any thoughts?
Keep the one that isn't human aggressive. A rooster isn't going to do anything against a coyote though. To protect your flock they'll need to be put away into a secure coop every night.
 
I was counting on the rooster putting up some fight and causing enough ruckus for me to get close enough to save some of them. The chickens free range during the day. It makes them happy.
 
I circled the ear lobe which is red.
