I have a 10 week golden sex link chicken, Gigi, and I wanted to get your opinion of whether you think it's a roo. I would have assumed that since it was a sex link chicken that it is almost guaranteed that it would be a pullet, but Gigi is showing some translucent green tail feather and some...
I have a 6 week silver laced wyandotte and I wanted to get your opinion of if you think it's a roo. The wyandotte has thicker legs, seems to jump on his other brooder mates, and seems to be more aggressive. Thanks in advance!
