How to tell Ancona chicks' gender?

[Mamapermaculture]

Hi!

I have nine Anconas in the incubator. Really crossing my fingers here for at least three hens after the last BR clutch gave me one out of six, but at least they are good for eating unlike the Anconas .

Leaves me with the question how to tell their gender or do I just have to wait to see comb differences after a few weeks?

Cheers
Annika

I think you have to wait for combs and wattles, I haven't heard of an auto sexing ancona
