    Is this D'anvers chick a rooster? Part of sexed order from MPC (pics)

    I got a shipment of chicks back in July from My Pet Chicken; I paid extra to make sure that they were all sexed to be female since I have had problems with roosters in the past (namely them constantly attacking me and the other hens) and didn't want to go through that again. I got four Quail...

What...
