I saw this mentioned somewhere on here yesterday or the day before a mention of sexing chicks by leg color.
I had 3 EE cockerels and 1 barred rock cockerel mating with 2 high production reds, 2 amberlinks and 1 barred rock pullets.
If I hatch chicks and they have the blue/slate legs, is it safe to assume that they are male? Or is that not an indicator at all? As I said, likely a foolish question. I don't understand chicken genetics, I'm afraid.
