Easter Egger Sexing "tips and tricks" *Pictures Included*

[Miss Ameraucana]

But it's a method that can easily be tampered with. You can inadvertently get the pendulum the way that you want it too. 

That's what one of the feed store guys said, but there were probably 50 plus chicks in the brooder, I told him I didn't care what the sex was on a particular chick because there were so many, the older guy was watching my hand, very close. My hand was still, they were both pretty interested by the time I was through. I didn't used to believe in this. But 100% accurate, well, is 100% accurate. In my experience.

I can't zoom in on the emerging chest feathers but if they are the brown/white patterned look that they appear to be, it's a pullet.

Quote: It still a bit early to tell, but for now your bird looks like a pullet. Keep an eye out for red patches coming in on the back and shoulders.

I'm very much leaning toward pullet at this early stage.
