Sexing Orphintons

[go4rice]

I have 5 I think hens. Tried the on bsck, legs up to belly, females, legs down males. Is this accurate? How do I tell? They are 6 weeks old

I have heard many variations of this method and I don't think it's very accurate. Can you post a picture? If so, than I can probably sex them for you.

I have 5, six week old chicks. No one picture lots of group
