Ok, I'm very new to this chicken thing but I was outside the other day and checking on the chickens when it appeared my alpha rooster was mounting what I thought was another one of my roosters. See, I purchased 6 light brahma chicks in the spring from a local feed store and they were suppose to all be pullets but so far it appears I have at least 3 or 4 roosters. I've moved one to another home and in the process of moving another one. Now I'm questioning if maybe the one chicken being mounted is actually a pullet? I'm so confused. Do roosters ever mount other roosters as a sign of dominance. We haven't had any issues yet with them fighting. All of them are around 22 weeks.

Help!
 
Not sure about Roosters but Dogs do it to dominate.
