Feather sexing is bred into the strains, i think its probably used mostly in commercials, i can't think of ever seeing it in pure breeds but it may be.

They could be done once they are older and you can see what sex they are or when the spurs start to grow but i've never done it with that age of bird, just day olds and older cocks.
