Giving all but two chickens away...
I'll start over next year.

It just came out, bama... lol...

Beer, be careful... make sure the pullet is still a bit smaller than the Silkies body mass when you put her in with them... my other Paint Silkie roo I lost cuz he was chasing a full grown Jersey tail and she killed him... pecked him directly on his throat and broke his trachea... he went out with a bang at least...

it's took me some time to learn but I'm fairly accurate. Watched the metzer farm video a lot! I've sorted out 3 groups for sale and was sexing them cause people were wanting to make sure they didn't get all drakes. Glad I checked them cause one group was 3 drakes and 1 hen. Swapped out some so they're 2 and 2 on 2 groups and the other is a quad.

If you had Argentine Lake Ducks.......nevermind

I believe it is less messy sexing them at 2 weeks then as day olds! I get pooped on a lot less.

I was checking a few I kept for myself and was hoping I was holding a well marked chocolate drake. They're all chocolate and lavender hens I knew the lavender would be hens as I don't have any color combos that would make a lavender drake. Wish I could get a lavender drake.

 

[minihorse927]

Oh wait. I do have a way to make lavender drakes! I am so going to do some swapping on hens tomorrow. I've got a lilac hen. Could put her with my black drake that carries chocolate.
