Delaware Chicks 3 weeks

[EdnaAndEdith]

Yeah the eggs and hanging upside down is bs. Impossible. The breeds which the tractor supply tell all have an autosexing trait. Either feather devopment or coloration. The hatcheries use vent sexing, where they look up the vent for genitals. It’s the only method that’s 100% accurate for any breed. Don’t try it, you have to force them to poo to do it.

Thanks for the input! I’m glad I didn’t go hang the babies upside down for nothing yet!
Any thoughts on my babies?

Way too young. Did your broody hatch them?

Hay I’m just telling others what a always works for me

Does anyone know what can cause a ducking to suddenly drop dead because all f the times I have raised duckings nothing has ever happened like that I have w whole post about it


And I am not forcing you to do it I was just telling you what works for me

Oh and it’s ok to hang your bids upside down like that if they’re adults. You have to do that for showmanship in a show.

She didn’t hatch them she took them in as day olds from the local feed store. She would hatch chicks every other month all year if I’d let her. Shes a great mom but after last hatch was a roo I wanted to buy “sexed” chicks so I wouldn’t end up with another one. Hope they were sexed right. I heard you could tell earlier with Delaware’s then with other breeds so I was afraid of it being too early but thought I’d see if anyone could tell. Thanks for your help though!

Yes, if they’re feed store 99 percent pullets. They only get it wrong a little.
