OnTheSpot can these guys be sexed at this age?

TYVM I love this thread!

 

[onthespot]

none can be accurately sexed at this age. The only ones I have that can, are the barred olive eggers, which were not included as they were not laying a few weeks ago. They are just sexed by the spot on top of the head, which in itself is not completely accurate, but better than nothing. I have a few hatched this weekend and I will be keeping them all to see how accurate the spot on the head method works, so I can report back with some personal experience rather than "people say" and let people take their chances.

Thought you might want to see the babies at 1 week.
A friend has the Red Brick Olive eggers and the Presley BCMs so no updated pics of them.

Bev Davis BCMs, Blue/Black. I put blue food coloring on their bottoms

I only have 1 mottled java, one had died this morning. No pasty butt, no signs of trauma. No idea.

I dont' think it is in the incubation. I think they do not ship well.
They do always hatch a little late for me, so give them the extra day or 2.
Good luck!
