MyPetChicken is the only hatchery that I know of that offers sexed bantams. Does anyone have experience with this? Are they generally as accurate as they are with standard birds, or almost? I can't have roosters, and could never bring myself to cull birds. Is their bantam sexing accurate?
 
It may be as accurate or may not but either way bantams are tiny and that is why hatcheries do not do it. Dangerous for those tiny babies. But pullers instead of chicks. IMO
 
Buying sexed pullets of any breed isn't guaranteed to be 100% accurate, so there always should be a plan for any cockerels who turn up. Otherwise, only but autosexing breeds, who can be sexed at hatching.
Any hatch is going to be about 50% each sex, and all those cockerels go somewhere, even if you don't buy them yourself.
