Sexing Texas A&M

[JLS77]

Can you sex them at 6 weeks

 

[BobWhitesrus]

you can sex them at hatch if you know how to vent check otherwise no!..When i had them i just waited for them to cackle...and that is a male..lol

 

[JLS77]

So are they not producing the white foam by 6 weeks

If it makes an ear piercing noise - male
If It sounds like I have a cricket in the kitchen - female
(NO, I'm not trying to be sarcastic. With the A&M's, I've yet to find a more efficient method)


that's what I do and it hasn't failed me yet. I brood my chicks inside, and assuming I still have chicks left at 4 weeks, they're all successfully sexed by then.
