Can anyone help? SEXING. UPDATED IMAGES

[Shaun89174]

Hi all and thanks for taking the time to read this.

We have bought a hybrid breed rhode island red x light sussex (Black tails)

We've ended up with 5 chicks. After looking at the wings we can't decide if we have males or females although these should be auto sexing chicks the wings look the same.

From the lmages below you can see the brown (auto sexing hen) with the yellow feathered (Boys)

Do we have 3 roos one hen or do we have 3 hens 1 roo any help would be greatly appreciated. First time hatches.

Unfortunately I don't know anything about feather sexing. Hopefully someone that can help will come along soon. Congrats on your hatch though!

I think once you start crossing breeds the feather sexing becomes less reliable.

Feather sexing only works in a few select birds specifically bred for it. How is your cross an auto sexing breed or do you mean sex linked? I'm not familiar with all the crosses that make sex linked chicks but if that cross does, I'd go by the color and ignore feather sexing.

You won't be able to feather sex this cross. Chicks that can be feather sexed only result from specific crosses and this is not one of them.
