I have no doubt that this has been covered before, but after looking through the first 6 pages of this forum I have not found the answer. Can anyone tell me how soon a hen will squat if you lay your hand on their back? Are hens the only ones that do it or do the roos squat too if they are young? I am new to this and we hatched our first chicks this year. I am trying to tell if we might have any pullets or if they are all roos. I had pics up asking the sex and most of the opinions were mostly roo. Please explain roughly what age they will squat and if young roos do it too. Thanks everyone!
