How to tell a male from female chick is easy. Wait about 8 weeks - you'll know for sure thereabouts.
There are two other certain ways:
1. Sex them at birth although that can be dicey, even for experts.
2. Employ sex link traits, so the chicks display coloration particular to male or female.
Amberlinks: The DEKALB AMBERLINK is a brown egg layer, mainly white- with some brown feathers. After having been away from the US market for several years, she is back by popular demand! She is the bird of choice for alternative production methods. She is very adaptive to non-cage operations with her excellent livability, her beautiful full brown egg color and ability to keep her feathers well throughout the lay.
Amberlink Chickens are hybrids, white and pale apricot feathers, prolific layers, friendly and easy to handle.
