I have a clutch of eggs due tomorrow, but I'm not sure which ones can be feather-sexed. I researched a bit and came up with these results:

Delaware- can be feather-sexed
Barred Rock- cannot be feather-sexed
White Leghorn- can be feather-sexed
Rhode Island Red- can be feather-sexed
Buff Orpington- cannot be feather-sexed

Are these correct?


Sorry if this is in the wrong place but I didn't know where to ask.

I thought leghorns could be feather sexed; seems like I read commercials are using it now for them. Barred Rock can be color sexed at hatching; don't know about feather sexing, but they are easy enough to do by color. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=331015

this would have been better in, What breed or gender is this?
