Does anyone dare to do the vent test? At a chicken talk a 4H chicken guru instructed the elementary school children to look for "a pimple" in the chick's vent to identify males the first week. Honestly, I didn't want to put my chicks or myself through it, so I gave up after one try, but, it would have been a lot easier to do it at the Farmers Exchange before bringing them home or waiting until now when they're six weeks bigger and stronger. Have any of you tried this method? Is it conclusive? Please visit my page and let me know what you think my PBRock is. Is this a cockerel?
Yep he is a boy. Looks like my Penguin when he was a baby. Now he is a big rooster with massive drumsticks.
