When can you sex ayam cemani?

[Hannahnic14]

I have some 6 week old Ayam cemani chicks. Pretty sure they are both male but I didn't know when you could accurately sex them since we can go by red wattles and combs?

I would say that they may take a little longer than average. So since most birds can be sexed at 6-8 weeks (from photos), I would say 7-8 weeks is a good place to start. That being said, do you have photos of them?

I agree with you on two cockerels, BUT I would love to be wrong! Please update in a few weeks, at 8 weeks.
