Just for my info, is she too wet to have been taken out of incubator?!

No. She looks fine. But I’m no expert.
Definitely don’t pull them out when they look like this.

Thanks - she had been hatched between 12 & 18 hours. Do you know if feather sexing is accurate?!

Feather sexing? Like looking at feather tips?
No at all. Sites claim it is, but it only works on cross breeds who had a fast feathering parent and a slow feathering parent.

Thank you. That's exactly what I meant. So with CLBs, not relevant here

I would say you need to let them dry completely before you try to sex them. And sometimes it is really obvious, but sometimes you have to look very closely and make a judgement.
