Im thinking of hatching some whicks but only keep the hens.Does anyone know what breeds there are that can be sexed after hatching instead of waiting for the dredded crowing!!

Apparently Cream Legbar can be sexed on day one. Girls have a spot on their head and boys have a stripe.....................me thinks.........

All the 'bars' legbar, welbar, cobar, barebar - there are more are all autosexing pure breeds - Wernlas do a full range of these and sell hatching eggs and day old chicks. You will still need to get rid of them if that is you intension - why not buy sexed day old chicks?

Thanks for that guys.

I have thought of buying day old chicks but thought it would be a great experience for the children and me to do as a family, that is to hatch out our own chicks.

 

Will look on the webistes given and read up a bit more before i finaly decide.
