Hi all! I'm hoping you can help me out. I know I have one rooster for sure, but I think I may have two more. If you could help me identify them, and if indeed they are roosters, I would appreciate it tons! I'm fairly new to chickens, especially roosters.
If the other two are indeed roosters, what should I do?! Three roosters is probably to much ony hens?! I only have 10 chickens, including these three "guys" the first one is Sammy, and I'm not sure of his breed. I know the other one is an Ameraucana, I'm just not sure if it's a rooster. The other one I think is a rooster but not sure of breed either.

That's a cockerel.

The rest are pullets.
 
The one in the first photo is a cockerel (young rooster). The others look female but would need to see clearer, close up photos.
There is no magic number, but the general rule of thumb is 1 boy to 10 girls. 😊
 
I see one male (first pic). Other two look like pullets. But, how old? And can we get closer pics of face/comb/wattles of those two?
