Magical sex changing chicks

Recommended Posts

It would just be awful if they were all boys!

 

Based on their personalities and what I've been told to look out for I think:

 

Mr Fantastic - girl

Stewy - boy

Pingu - boy

Dave - girl

Fajita - girl

Mo - boy

Bruno - girl

Large Lumps - boy

Captain Jack - boy

Oscar - girl

 

Still not sure though! I'll let you all know when they finally decide what they want to be!

In the three weeks since we've had our lovely little chicks we've been continually trying to fathom their sex. I've looked on endless websites and even asked a vet (who did say we would not be able to tell for a while) but every time we make a decision, they appear to dramatically 'change sex'. It's hilarious! Almost as though they are laughing at us thinking 'ha ha, they think I'm a boy, silly people'! They're six weeks now and I still couldn't even begin to make an accurate guess. Does anyone know at what age you can tell their sex? I've heard stories about them 'changing sex' right up to six months but surely this is unusual. Our boys will be going to live on a farm and I will be so sad to see them go. Lets hope for ten out of ten girls! :pray:

 

 

I watch a lot of documentaries and such and apparently boys have shorter length feathers and girls are long but this is only in hybrid chicks not in true breeds I wouldn't use that as a certainty though but worth a shot
