The Complete Guide to Telling a Rooster from a Hen

Thorough article that seems to cover everything. Just need a few pictures, although I did see one picture after I read the article. Thanks.

Good info, but article needs pictures (or illustrations).

Very informative, but as others have said, this article is in dire need of pictures! Show us the difference in vents, saddles, hackles, wings, etc.

Pictures would be the cherry on top of this already delicious sundae. It gives a great foundational level of information and makes for a perfect starting point for exploring the art of sexing chickens.

Great article, but more pictures would be helpful, especially for the users that are visual learners.

Good article, but more pictures to show the differences between cockerels and pullets would be helpful - for example, a picture of the difference between pullet and cockerel saddle feathers.

The section on wing sexing is also a bit incorrect - it needs to be done at a few days old, not a few weeks old. By a few weeks old, the differences in feather growth will no longer be distinguishable.

Great article!
