Hi! I have a flock of 6 chickens and can only keep 5 because of our town ordinance. I also can’t keep a rooster. I have an aunt who keeps chickens that will take the extra whether it’s a hen or rooster. I’ve been watching and waiting to see if one would emerge as the clear rooster, but so far they all seem like hens. What do you think? Any advice would be appreciated as we try to make sure we only keep 5 hens.
All are 9 weeks old.

Here’s the flock breed list:
1 speckled sussex
1 barred rock
1 buff orpington
1 black australorp
2 Easter eggers
