My daughter is plotting to make me nuts.. she wants to get day old chickens and see if there is anyway the average home chicken hobbyist can sex them. She wants to buy more chickens.... I do not want to buy more chickens.. So please help..
We have a buff orphington roo and then a mixture of hens. I am posing her working with a breeder to help sexing them... (She has to call them not me!) But if it is a possibility to even test the sex-link feathering it would be cool. Does anyone know which breeds are fast feathering and slow feathering.. Then she can hatch the eggs then start measuring them from the moment of hatching to see which is hens and which is roo's. I think that is something that all of us chicken enthusiast would like to know....
Thanks a lot...
