Thanks everyone, by looking at them a few weeks ago I guessed 4 roos and a hen but not sure and hoping for more hens! Will try to get some better pics when my little one goes down for his nap......
 
Left foreground is likely a pullet, the others look like cockerels. In my experience it COULD be a bit early to see pointy saddle feathers. Don't rely on crowing either. The subordinates may not crow when the leader is around.
