1000My wheaton shamo stag. He is about 5 months old

At this time I have a small group of oriental fowl and about 125 racing homers. Taking proper care of both is a lot of work but they relax me

Someone died so you wouldn't have to, have you said thank you?

Supa,

 

Easier to guess when they are first feathering out. By taking notice of their primary feathers( on the wings). The pullets primaries are longer than the cockerels. At this point, you are better off waiting to look for the cockerels faces(comb and wattle area) to turning red.

 

Check this link on feather sexing for future refernce:

But if you are really looking for the good ones you should wait at least a year, especially if they are Ganoi, Shamo or any of the large asil. The big fowl develope slowly and change quite a bit the first 2 yrs.

 

Good luck

Alright thank you Paulo.  I just wanted to see which will be a pullet since I have a bunch of hens right now.
