UpstateSCChickens
In the Brooder
Recently added 2 Black Australorp Chicks: at 6 weeks I was absolutely certain they were cockerels. Can’t have boys in the city, so returned them to the farm. The owner exchanged them for 3 week old ‘pullets’.
I hate to hand raise the babes just to find out again that they’re not girls.
The guy who sold them to me said BAs are hard to sex and the best method he had was to look at the comb. Black for pullets, white for cockerels. Obviously this method is flawed!
Any advice for sexing them?
