Hi, I currently have 2 mottled houdan chicks and am wondering if they are females or males. They are 2 weeks old. Is it possible to tell the difference at this age.
 
Almost certainly not. In super fast maturing breeds with single combs or sex specific coloring, yes, but any other comb, color or any slow growing bird, it's not going to have the signals of sex that early.
