Thank you Wynette! I won't breed her. I have one more hen I can use when she is older.4-h - looking GREAT! Keep up the hard work!
Chickadoodles - This does happen with solid black birds, not only in Giants, but in all breeds of solid black. I have seen it more in the blue variety, but I have seen it in the black as well. I would not use that bird for breeding.
Jake - yes, you can get Giants at most hatcheries; most of the folks on this thread are breeding for exhibition quality, which you cannot find at hatcheries. Each has its place, though!
for me its around 6 to 7 weeks when i could tell forsure the sex of a JG but im pretty new to these guys and have only raised 17 babies but at around 7 weeks the roos will start to develop little wattles and their combs will start to out grow the pullets and also the color of the comb and wattles will start turning red on the roos.. now i did notice earlier on that some of the combs on the babies run up the heads more than others and they all turned out to be roos.. hope this helped
