Hi everyone. I was just wondering how to tell if my month and a half old chick is a rooster or not. I'll give you some details that are on this chick.
1.He/She has a black beak.
2.He/She has a pointed up tail.
3.He/She is medium weight.
4.He/She has colorful black and white feathers.

If you PROBABLY know, please reply and tell me because we have a chicken farm. THANKS!!!!!!

By a month and a half, you should start getting a pretty good idea by looking at the chick's comb and wattles. They should be turning red by that age on most males. If they're still yellow, or even just light pink, it's a good chance you've got a female.
