PLEASE..... don't say that LOL..... my luck!!!!

I asked for all pullets ( he claims he has them sexed) and I get ALL roos instead. Now what am I going to do with 3 Roos (guy claimed I could return the Roos but will see)! I guess I need to wait little longer or bring them back for others...anyone know any telltale signs of Pullets of the breeds I got so this doesn't happen to me again or is it hit and miss? back to the ole drawing board....

Thanks "ramirezframing"

Yeah, you have the three amigos there. The guy was pretty accurate in his guessing, just opposite in what he was trying to guess.

For Barred Rocks, they can be gender IDed at birth if they are purebred. Look for dark chicks with very small head spots. The darker the better. Light grey on the body and big white head spots are roo business with them.
