I thought I would update with my own sex ratio now that the chicks I ordered are teens. Out of the 18 unsexed I ordered, I got 5 cockerels. I unfortunately lost 4 to a mustelid of some sort right on the cusp of reaching an easily sexable age, but I'm fairly certain all of those losses were...
i guess from hatchery, either is fine though. i know they’re probably a little different but i want as many examples as possible so i know what to expect :) sorry if this is the wrong forum! sometimes i’m not sure which to post under.
i know the real average is 50/50, but in practice, how often have you guys gotten that or close? im getting straight run for the first time as theres a few breeds i can only find unsexed and im wondering if its realistic to expect even a 1/3 or 2/5 pullet to cockerel ratio. thx :)
