thanks, I told her that I thought she had at least 1 male, she is thinking she has 3 males and 1 female.... I am thinking opposite!
 
Only one looks African the other three are African mixes since pure Africans don't have a white strip on them.
 
They all look mixed except for maybe 1 of them (yellow in the bills, white stripe across front of breast), so you'll just have to wait til they 'show' you by their behavior.

Production Africans do not get that big, you need to look at the 'hatchery' stock to see what this person has. The ones you are talking about are referred to as dewlap Africans.

I don't know where you are getting your information from but a Adult Male African Dewlap should weigh 22-28 pounds.
There's no way a African Dewlap can weigh 50 pounds.
