Good to know! Haha. My husband was quite convinced that it would be accurate based on what they do in large chicken operations where they get rid of the roosters on day 1. But obviously those are bred with that trait purposefully and most of mine are just a backyard mix. So I guess I will not know for awhile which ones are actually pullets vs. cockerels. When can you usually tell? I really hope I don't have a bunch of roosters to get rid ofFeather sexing does not work on most chickens.
It only works when someone crosses a fast-feathering rooster to slow-feathering hens.
Where did you get the eggs? Did the seller say anything about sexing? If they didn't say, then it's probably not the right kind of cross.
