Pullet or Roo?

I just measured the farthest we can extend the run and it is 8x18. So at 10 sq ft a bird I could have enough room for 14. Would 1:6 ratio for 2 roosters be ok with that area of run? We still aren't convinced that the other one is a rooster yet so we may only have 1 rooster.

That would be better. I still would not confine two roosters with hens in that space though.

Ok thank you. I am just praying that one is a fast grower. The one now in question is half way between what we have decided is a roo and the other 2 that have barely started growing combs.

I thought I would give an update to those that helped me on this thread. So we only have 1 roo (phew!). And the little guy in the above pics now looks like this.
