I have been doing some research and would love to rear my own chicks all the way up to adults...... but what if some of the chicks end up being roosters? I live in Dallas, Texas and in my area we are allowed to keep only hens. I am not particular about changing the law to keep a rooster but it sounds like it is very difficult to sex chicks and I may have to buy more than I would like to get females. Now would it be alright to keep the chicks long enough till they show signs of their sex and then adopt the males out? Or do you think someone will come along and try to write me up for it?
By the way just started reading the Raising Chickens for Dummies book and it's great!
Also bought Storey's Guide to Raising Chickens.
