Cynthia, I have babies

[herechickchick]

3 Barred rock babies. I know one is a boy and I think the other 2 are girls. Hopefully there will be more piped when I get home tonight. I will keep you posted.

I got a quick question and one that I asked my hubby earlier but he didn't know...how do you tell the sex of chicks when born???
It would be nice to know if there is a way outside of roosters comb.

That's good news, Adam! Ruffle, most breeds, you cant tell, but Barred Rocks have a color sexing thing we go by that works most of the time.

I now have 4 babies and 1 more almost out. Looks like 2 girls and 2 boys so far.

Sounds like they're doing pretty well!

Well the fifth did not make it (probably for the best). I had one piped this morning Day 22 so we will see. I think I have 2 girls and 2 boys.
