Pullets will have the longer row and the shorter row. Roos will have them all the same length. I'm not an expert but I did look at a You Tube video about feather sexing just yesterday. I have my fingers crossed that I can apply that technique to sexing a few EE chicks in a few weeks as I am looking for 2 more pullets. It only works within the first 72 hours after hatching which means I will have to rush to the feed store as soon as they get their new chicks in. lol. Hopefully someone with a bit more experience with feather sexing can back up what I said because I think there are some limitations to the accuracy on feather sexing depending on genetics.
