I purchased four chicks that were sexed and supposedly all female turns out two are roosters my Rohde Island I know is a rooster he crows and is the leader of the flock.
Not sure about this one though? Haven’t heard him crow yet.
I can’t have two roosters and only two hens!!

Probably a cockerel. The lower roosters wont crow when a rooster higher in the pecking order is around
 
He has pink legs indicating white skin which Marans have. Plymouth Rocks on the other hand have yellow legs/yellow skin. Other than that trait, they are difficult to tell apart 😊
Thank you! I didn't even notice that. Does the white barring thing apply to marans as well?
