sexing silver laced Wyandotte chicks??

I just aquired 15 Slw chicks and was wondering how easy they are to sex.. THey have similar markings as my wellies which are pretty much auto sexing. Is that the same for Wyandottes??

No, they are not auto-sexing, unfortunately. You will need to wait 6+ weeks and start evaluating physical characteristics as they develop.

Yeah that's what I figured. I put them in with my older wellie chicks and seem to get along just fine. Is there any special care that the dottes require??
