I wasn't Misled. They were just labeled $1.25 Chicks. I thought I might get lucky and get one Pullet.

10 days isn't that old. Most males don't start developing until around 4 weeks. Sometimes not until 6-8 weeks.

Yes, they are cockerels, but very cute ones. They look healthy, too.

Never buy from someone who guarantees 100% sexing. The only way to guarantee that is if you bought sexlinks.

You can if you buy older birds. But you're right about chicks. Even the expert vent sexers at the big hatcheries get it wrong sometimes.

Yes, I agree with that exception. I was just focused on her saying they shipped the day they hatched. But yes, older birds can be 100% sexed

We bought 4 Plymoth Barred Rock Chicks. I am having trouble sexing them. What do you think?

Cockerels.
