lol... that's usually how they do it...

Any of the Duckwing types, Silver or Gold, or Black Breasted Red are fairly easy to sex as soon as they start feathering in... easiest and simplest thing to know is the hens will never get black feathers in the body... only the boys will...

My babies like to go out in the run when everyone else is coming in to roost so they can have the place to themselves.  They still haven't figured out that they need to go inside before the pop door closes.

So again, I go out at dusk and find them in a pile in the corner of the run, scoop them up and put them in the coop.

May have to put a night light in the coop for a while to get them to go inside by themselves.

This is good to know. I'm pretty sure I've got a pair of silver leghorns but now I'm going to look closer in the morning.

I've heard that has been successful for many... I dunno... I stick them in a few times and if they still stay out I call them 'Owl Bait'... one disappears and suddenly they know where the coop is at night...

Might be a possibility if I had a zillion chickens and ducks and didn't mind if natural selection took a few..... . When you only have 7 chicks you kind of want to keep them all.
