Yeah, both sexes look very good.

Roo:


I'd ship you some but i have never shipped before

As far as i have been told you can sex most breeds by feather sexing. Someone tell me i'm an idiot if thats the case, but feather growth is a sex inherited gene, at about a day old you can tell the two apart by looking at the flight feathers on the wing tip. Males will have shorter more uniform feather length, where females will have staggered, longer feathers. (Primary and Coverts are different lengths)

You are not an idiot, but you are still wrong....lol
Feather sexing can only be done in some chicks, you have to cross a fast feathering bird with a slow feathering bird, the chicks can be sexed by the feather growth at 2 days old

That sounds...complicated. What about vent sexing? I know not to do it if you're inexperienced but surely there must be some way to find a vet or a breeder than can do it for you.
