Okay, this is probably a stupid question. When I bought my BOs, the breeder told me all except one in her batch were pullets. I asked her how she knew and she claimed that the comb was different and slightly red. She also told me that EEs were Ameraucanas, but that's a rant for another day.
Rather than argue, I picked out birds with the short/nonexistent combs and whose few hackle feathers looked rounded. But I could've gotten cockerels for all I know.
My question to you is she right about being able to determine the sex of the BOs at this early stage? I thought that straight run were all pretty equal in sex and you have a 50/50 chance.
Have I screwed myself over? They're might cute chicks.
