Roosters.chasing off toms?

[MissD'uccle]

I have two toms and four ladies. Today I noticed my young roosters were hanging out with the ladies and the toms were gone. They have several acres to free range and no sign of fighting or a predator. Could the young roosters have run off the toms?

Doubtful. I think you have a predator. The fact that you saw no signs or fighting between your birds is a clue. Coyotes can dispatch and carry off a turkey very quickly. Same with Bobcat.
