    Remember its the hen that determines the sex of the offspring not the roo. Genetics are different for chickens than mammals.

    Good read. I also have been told temps play a role in developement. I doubt it. What is ,is, thats all there is to it! It is the female in chickens that decide the sex. If you are having to many roos, screen the hens and keep the eggs seperate for hatching to find your male producers and...

    If you get your flock tested for NPIP and ask for the extra mg/ms test they will do it. Its what I do. I also have them test for Salmonella and anything else they need to do. Blood test are simple. A stick to the under wing is where they take it. Its fast and easy. Good luck. Also there...

    Show us the entire feather where your thumb is hiding. Not the tail. If the whole wing is black then I would say boy if the wing top is beige girl.

    Do not introduce one or two new hens to the flock, introduce one or two of the flock to your new hens in the new hens pen. It works better that way. Then they are sort of on new turf and the older hens are not as fiesty. I usually introduce one old hen to the mix a wk for about three wks...

    Wow! I looked at the video! I knew they were smart and I knew all my hens had personalities. It makes me sort of wary of wanting to eat anymore chicken. I am not a vegetarian. but jees I hate eating something as smart as the animals we eat. I don't eat my hens. They have names and live...

    I do not know about virginia, only NC. I wish all states did. Even your hatcheries do not test for it in the flocks they get their eggs to hatch for selling. I am told it is the most prevalent disease. It usually does not make itself known until the hens are over 2 yrs old so the big egg...
