    Just had first hatch, trying to figure out genetics for crosses

    Hey everyone, I just hatched out chicks for the first time on the 4th and am trying to learn a bit more about their genetics. Specifically, I’m curious about whether or not they can be somewhat reliably feather-sexed when they hit a week old and am trying to find resources that detail the...

    Can anyone help me out sexing the barred rock chicks? The people I bought them from said they were pullets but I’m not real sure. I have two in the pics below of the group. I only have one chick recent close up. The pic of the two is when we first got them.
