How to identify gender

[rolffamily]

Hi all, I just read an interesting way to tell gender at about 5 weeks of age. Sale a hat or similar over a group of chicks. The roosters will stand tall and the pullets will duck down.

That way that you mentioned is not always accurate. You get some very tall standing pullets and some ducking down cockerels.
The best way to identify gender is by posting pics here, then you'll have a wider opinion on gender and breed.
