is there a way to sex game chicks at 3 weeks. i have brunner roundheads that i want to check so bad. i have 2 spangled(1 is easily spangled, other may be speckled) and 1 normal feather pulumage. i got them for free from working for my friend at his game ranch. he only hatches eggs certain times of the year, and these hatched about 1.5 weeks after the collected ones so he let me have them

I cant tell at 3 weeks most of the time.

If you post some pictures someone might be able to tell.

Id say the first two are stags, and the last one a pullet. In my opinion

 

[elevatedruby]

could you possibly tell me why so i can have a guess at it some other time

 

[elevatedruby]

ill be so happy if the spangleds are the cockerels. how much do brunner roundheads go for if they are spangled?

Elevated, I think you have 3 pullets, but the middle picture has 30% chance of a stag (I need a close up pix to have a better guess). If any stag, you would have known by the black feather showing up on their chest. That's .. unless this is White bird.

 

[elevatedruby]

two are spangled, so what do you mean by white bird.

The females typically have drab/dull/camo colors. The males typically have fancier/erratic patterns with dark blotches (usually on chest, but elsewhere too). I dont think they will stay spangeled.. They will probably loose that when they mature.

notice the little white tips (they go away)



These three shown above turned into this.....
