What breed and sex are my chooks?

Hopefully they're all hens but we have room for everyone! They are a gift from a friend and she says they are hens but I wanted to check! Many thanks

They look like hens so far how old are they?

I think one of the black ones and possibly, but not sure, one of the white ones are roosters.

I think the black one sitting in the middle of the three on a swing ( ) may be a rooster.

How old? Did your friend buy them or hatch them from their own flock?

The 4 bigger ones are about 10 weeks old and the 2 little ones about 6 weeks. I had a feeling there might be a boy in there! Will having 2 roosters bring me problems?! Thank you

My friend was given them when they where 3 days old and gave them to me when they where 6 weeks. Thank you

It depends. Here's a recent thread that you can look at discussing this.
