In short, the results say, "Yes. You can determine chicken sexes by shape" with some 80ish percent accuracy.
Imagine the thousands of...
There have been studies in case anyone is interested https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9832119/#:~:text=Sex%20determination%20in%20chicks%20can%20be%20done%20before%20or%20after%20hatching.

I love them!
They actually better mannered than any of my dogs or cats too.

Gotta focus on the 1 right now.
Will get all their doses measured up and get em 1st a time hopefully we'd evening.
Thank you for...
