Roosters start crowing around 12 weeks. The roosters won't even be big enough or experienced enough to defend your flock. I get what you're trying to do but get a Great Pyrenees, they're a good guardian breed. Look for a chicken swap in your area they usually have guardian dogs for flocks. You can get a lot of different ideas from chicken breeders too plus learn about guardian dogs that they use.
