Roosters not letting hens into the run?

[Whitetail]

So when i let my chickens out in the morning, Two of the roosters will go out into the run, and than if the hens or other roosters try to go out into the run, they are chased back inside onto the roost by the roosters, Unfortunatly the one rooster whos the dominant one is the sweetest rooster i have, doesnt mind being held/picked up, And i believe hes the dominant one, as he is the only one who crows currently out of the 5 roosters i have (Havent culled the extras yet.) What should i do, i'm sure the hens would like to be able to go out into the run sometime.

Cull the extras.

Cull the extras.

Well, the extra roosters tend to just sit in the coop on the roost as well with the hens. But getting rid of them will then cause the rooster to accept the hens and not chase them back inside? Are you saying the hens are all the other roosters girls? How can that be with the one rooster being the alpha?

It appears that early in the morning a rooster's hormones are at their peak. He has one thing on his mind. Multiple roosters fighting over and gang breeding hens frequently leads to claw and spur damage to the hens sides and backs - a sometimes fatal situation. Even a flock of 50 does not need 5 roosters. It is just good husbandry to keep one and eat the rest. If you are satisfied with the dominant rooster, why keep more?

Only one of the roosters (the alpha) has started to mate with the hens so far. I havent seen any of the other ones attempting it yet. but i'll Keep the dominant rooster and freezer camp the rest, but i'm having a hard time finding a place that will process them for me. My friend wont be able to come up until the end of august to help process them and shes done it before. Will the rooster pass on his slow development of feathers to his offspring? Hes developing so slow i thought he was a hen.
