Ok mouth
I've hatched way too many eggs to believe that. And have way too many hens that lay also.What do you mean? The egg technique is scientific.
I believe Rooster was trying to be silly.I've hatched way too many eggs to believe that. And have way too many hens that lay also.
I have hens that only lay pointy eggs and hens that only lay fat round eggs but yet I hatch both sexes from each.
I once saw a study and they tried to lean towards it being somewhat accurate. But they were talking micro differences in measurements. Thats not something I'm gonna try but I can assure you if it was accurate the hatcheries would be using the method.
If egg shape or measurements could predict the sex it would revolutionise the hatchery industry.
So until they jump aboard that crazy train I'm gonna let it blow its whistle and pass right by.
I believed that was probably the case.I believe Rooster was trying to be silly.
Also, please stay off the crazy train.
I'm the conductor.I believed that was probably the case.
But my reply was two fold.
First for others that may come along and read the replies. I want to leave no doubts about my thoughts on it since I also was being silly about it.
It amazes me how many believe that idea and adamantly believe it.
Second reason was a little jab back for the "The breeder clearly didn't do a very good job." comment.
Hope she doesn't take too much offense to the reply.
Stay off the crazy train? What you didn't save me a seat?
Based on what you’re saying here, care to take a guess at the combination of these two hens? They are 13 months old in these pics and are a 50/50 split of two pure breds.I figured the pattern on an obvious male would make a few scratch their heads.
The others where just colors seen in other more common breeds. I just wanted people to see ID'ing breeds isn't always as easy as it seems.
Just because its buff doesn't mean Orpington. Even buff with yellow legs doesn't mean buff rock.
