My experience in hatching EE's and 1/2 Copper Maran's is that in January I hatched 12 eggs under a broody and 9 were female. In April I got 5/5 males. Could temp have anything to do with it...like in turtles?
I had one very lucky hatch this summer(June) with eggs hatched under a broody. She hatched 9 out of 10 eggs and ALL NINE were pullets. It was the best hatch I had all year
