He is my favorite one!! His name is Daryl. Well I thought it was a girl at the time. I guess that's what I get for giving *her* a male name. Haha

Most hatcheries if you buy sexed peeps will guarantee only an 85-90% accuracy. Most people I know who have gotten peeps have gotten at least one rooster but it is within that percentage.
Some feed stores will take back missexed birds. Hatcheries won't, but they will often offer credit. You can post signs trying to find someone who wants a cockerel. If you cannot have a rooster some options are getting older birds where there is less chance for error. Buy where you can exchange if you pay for a pullet (Usually a private breeder) or choose a sex link or autosexing breed.

I can have them where I live, I was just curious what others thought about if they are roosters or not. I'm a newbie. I'll see how it goes, but not opposed to keeping a coupl as long as they behave. Which if I'm right about them, they are the nicest of the bunch!
