Wiggling Emu Eggs

Do you do DNA testing? I have read mixed opinions of sexing by the pattern on their head.

The head pattern for sexing doesn’t work. I dna all the chicks just so people know what they’re getting. It really is handy to know what they are. It costs about $15 and postage, but worth it.

Thank you so much! Is there a company you prefer over another one?

The company I was using last year no longer does avian sexing so trying another one called IQ Bird Testing. I believe @Pyxis knows of another good one as well.

I used IQ for sending my Silkies. They were fine.

I remembered that I used this with both my Call ducks and my last batch of chicks, and I thought of you:

It's way too expensive for what it is, but there are DIY options. It's larger than it looks.
