Does this seem strange to anybody?

I've had several hatches over the last 6 months and have hatched out 9 BR chicks.
Out of those 9 chicks, 8 were cockerals!

What is this, did somebody curse me to be king of rooster hatching?

Anybody need a nice BR cockeral or 2?

Where did the eggs come from?

Were you incubating those torpedo shaped eggs!!!!!

That means your BR hen or hens are throwing cockerels. The female determines sex of the chicks. You need a new hen, LOL.

Yeah, ya gotta watch those egg-shaped ones. They always hatch out male for me

Oh, my. I hope that doesn't happen to us! We have 9 brand new chicks, two older...I'm sure one of the older ones is a roo and I was positive he/she was a hen earlier.....

I have had about 90% (or more) of the chickens that I have hatched, bought and sold end up being pullets this year. Actually, even the rabbits were all girls that were born! (Watch this new batch be all boys now that I say that! hehe)

No clue what was going on, but we were a girlie household this year.
