Hi,
Have been breeding new hampshires for many, many years and decided to try to do an autosexing line with them. (I breed them to sell as egg laying hens) I found a "recipe"on line and bred to that. I have 2 perfect roosters and 3 hens that I think are right. Now how do I pick the difference? I am not quite there yet with the hens and am still getting every colour chicken imaginable. This breeding season will be the first one with the correctly coloured roosters and most of the hens are second and third cross back to the new hampshires.
