These are my chickens.

You really should have known most of this before buying them. Too late now though.

Do your research and you'll be fine. Asking questions is good. The only stupid question is one you already know the answer to.

The two males are both in the first photo.
I'd recommend rehoming the boys.
I'm assuming this is your first time raising chickens, and two males are going to give you extra complications you don't need.

Since most questions have been answered I will do my best to explain the rest....

Chicken scratch...it is a treat of mixed grains. It is a treat to be used sparingly. A small handful flung wide will get them "scratching" around doing chicken things.
BOSS is black oil sunflower seeds. It is also a treat and can be flung wide along with the scratch. Treats are any edible item other than their formulated feed. Treats should only be fed at about 1 Tablespoon per bird per day so the protein in the feed is not diluted with low protein treats.

How to tell if a chick is in an egg... This can only happen if the rooster is breeding the hens AND the eggs are being incubated. Incubation is done with a hen who has the hormones triggered to sit on the nest and be "broody". No you cannot make a hen go broody. The second option is using an incubator.....that is a process I have not done so cannot advise there.
To know if a chick is growing in the egg a strong flashlight and dark room are often used. This is candling and the light lets you see what is or is not going on in the egg.

Thank you very much I appreciate it. I'm keeping all of my chickens together so if I got chicks I guess I will just have to take the eggs daily before they actually turn into chicks. My husband said that he wanted to have babies so the babies will be our food but I will not let that happen. They are my pets and they're made for eggs only thank you very much for all that information very helpful.

this is my first time raising chickens. And it's actually in my husband who wanted the chickens not me but since we got them I became very attached to him especially since they were babies and they were in my bedroom in a box for weeks. So now I'm trying to figure out how when where all that stuff thank you very much I will consider getting rid of my roosters or putting them separately from the rest of them and from each other of course. Probably make the pen bigger and put dividers in between.

Also one thing I noticed is your roosting bars. I would turn those around so the side with more surface area is facing up. Right now they are a bit too narrow for the chickens to use ergonomically.

I will get my husband on that when he gets home from work thank you he's the one who put it together I just want everything best for them.

Chickens are ‘flock’ animals which means they do better with other chickens. Rehoming your rooster to someone who will integrate him into their flock will be kinder for the bird than keeping him separate & isolating him on his own.

Yes. One is a female. The other is male.
Your question about the eggs.
There will be no chicks unless those eggs are incubated.
Collect the eggs every day. Refrigerate if you like.

*fertilized and then incubated.

Excuse me. My peach contaminated mind overlooked that.

At this rate I'm sure your mind has been fermented from peaches.
