Can you please help me
I have some chicks that are suppose to be all roosters but I think they aren't. I have 11 that have tail feathers and 5 that don't. The 11 with tail feathers are almost fully feathered while the ones who don't are spotty feathered. The chicks are about 5 weeks old and were wing sexed at about 1 week old to be all roosters. Can you tell in RIR at this age by tail feathers and other feather development?
