i took my chicks to a poultry breeder today and he vent sexed them. the ones without the tail feathers sure were boys!! they were so nice they took them from me and they gave me a 3 week old black australorp and a 4 week old golden laced wyandotte! Yay thank goodness I no longer have roosters!
oh my goodness! The ones with tail feathers I feel like are girls however the ones without the tail feathers are lighter in color and generally smaller so this doesnt seem to make much sense but I feel like they are totally different and some are definitely girls and some are boys I just dont...

the 3 might be roo, they feather out slower, while hens feather out faster
so do you think the chicks with more feathers and tail feathers are hens??
They are three weeks old however I just thought that it was so odd that I purchased them all at the same time and some have tail feathers and some do not!
What are the differences in these two bottoms of my chickens? I have six dark brahmas. Three have tail feathers and three have none. Are some roosters? I am so confused!! Please Help!
