Hi everyone,
I know that it's breed specific, but roughly at what age should a skilled person be able to tell the sex of a chick with almost certainty?
Last time I got a bunch of 2/3 week old chicks from a breeder almost 1/3 turned out to be cockerels and I'd like to avoid this in future if possible. This was a mix of Braekel, Orpington, Legbar, Brahma, and Marans.
TIA.
