wild/jumbo and a few other varieties are not sex-link per-say however, they are sexable at a very early age. solme under 3 weeks and we know if they are boy or girl... to me i dont need an easier method. they all hatch either way so im stuck with whatever is there so colored as chicks or colored in 3 weeks knowing male or female is the same to me. and good enough.. we eat most of the jumbo males in a&ms and the jumbo browns keep the females for laying. up to 60 laying jumbos and 15 laying a&ms...3 "male" meat pens with about 40 cot boys headin for freezer camp. gotta love coturnix quail..
