    Possible to sex 20-day old chicks?

    I have 3 Rhode Island Red chicks and I'm wondering if it's possible to sex them at this age? Two of them are quite a bit larger than the third and have more feather growth, and also are more outgoing.

    Salmon Faverolle - roo or just strange pullet?

    Nervous about this chick, because we just learned they will not allow roos in our area!

I know Salmons have been coming out...

    Help Sexing!

    I have a broody hen who hatched 7 eggs from a mixed barnyard dozen. I ordered the dozen from a reputable farm that has purebreds, but the dozen I got is not from there carefully separated lines and breeds, so any autosexing down patterns are uncertain. I do know some of their partial genes...
