Egg Sexer on ebay.com

Another one selling these things? There was a thread a month or so back.

I love this bit: Returns: No Returns Accepted

Of course not

Hey, I think that you are exaggerating a bit saying that all the eggs will hatch as pullets. I am sure that the sand will only guarantee a pullet hatch rate of about 50%. Mind you, that is still a good percentage, and certainly worth the $25 per lb.

Yep like that better , will refund money if they don't get at least 50 % pullets, sorry still can't refund shipping and handling cost.

Mrs. Fluffy Puffy :

I'm asking because my mom wants me to try it out...she said it might be better if I hatched just female chicks.

Tell your mom that the person selling this so-called device on ebay is a "scheister" and that there is no way to sex a chicken in the shell.

Do NOT waste your money on it, unless you just have money to waste/throw around on items that have no value, in which case, do whatever makes ya happy! Just if you do purchase this, please do so knowing that this "device" cannot predict the sex of your chick in the shell any more than if you passed ANY inanimate object over the egg to predict the sex. Can't be done. Guys like that on e-bay are out there to rip off people who may be gullible/inexperienced.

Not only would I not buy it, I would probably report the seller to ebay. But that's just me.​

I just can't belive people really buy this stuff.
Lets use reason and science to sex chickens not some Hocus Pocus voodoo.
The only way to sex chickens/chicks is:
1- vent sexing day olds
2- wing sexing (female from a slow-feathering breed is crossed with a male from a fast-feathering breed-The sex of the chicks produced from this cross can be determined during the first 48 hours )
3- sexlinked
4- it lays an egg

All the other methods is just playing the odds like gambling pretty much.

And remember folks females can (and do) crow.

That was my biggest reason to keep a rooster- at least the eggs can be hatched...
