are you vent sexing or wing sexing- don't listen to people who tell you to pick them up by the beak or anything. if you're gentle you can turn them so their butt is up and has you lift the tail up so the bung opens up a little, the upper part as a little dolup that looks like a baby's upper lip and if you keep holding the chicks but up the dolup goes in and out alittle. that is a boy. if you lift the tail so the bung opens up and the upper part looks like a little slit then it is a girl. combs grow faster on a boy and their feet and joint where they bend their legs are bigger.

Okay maybe you live in the city and cannot have roosters. this applies to adults when they crow which will not happen until 3 months or so so until then enjoy.
