temp. and correlation of pullets to cockerals

[toad62]

Hi, does anyone know or has anyone tested to see if there is any correlation between a specific temp and the % of pullets to cockerals? I saw a story on the discovery channel about how alligators or crocs, when tending their nests, if allowing the temps to get too hot, the babies will be a higher % either one way or the other! Was wondering if this is true with our chickens?

that works for reptiles..... Not for birds. Honey bee eggs ,that are not fertile hatch out to be drones(males) Fertile ones hatch out females.

Be nice if it did, so we wouldn't have so many extra cockerals.......
