sexing chicks

We have some 2 week old chicks, (cross Indian game/Sussex, Indian game/australorps, australorp/Sussex or pure australorps). Short of waiting until they start crowing, any ideas on how we could sex them???

no problem .......................................This is a Magnectic Sexer for eggs, chicks and chickens

Woow, not before time.

I have seen many people selling these before and always thought they were a fab idea. So i have now decided to make and offer these to you.

This is no immitation same as all the other sexers.

These have been around for a while now and if you hunt around you will find them in other place but usually cost more.

I was thinking the same as you do these work or is this a con. YES they really do work.

Works on hatching eggs, day old chicks and the older chickens aswell.

Swing one way for male and they other for female and same for hatching eggs but if nothing then not fertile.

All explained in the instructions that you will be sent.Colours may vary, but nothing shocking.

This has been 100% for me but im sure nothing can be 100% all of the time. There is a small few that cant get these to work, but they do work for 99% well some 1 asked me for 6 hens i used this and yes six hens still hard for silkies out off 20 i had 4 cocks not bad

What is it Gary? Is it a gold ring on a chain like you swing over the tummy of pregnant women?  ;D ;D ;D

Thats sounds useful.  I have six silkies here, and am scratching my head wondering how many are cockerels. One definite, but not sure yet on the others ......

These are great..50% of the time  ;D

Think of the millions of ££££'s the commercial poultry industry could have saved if they could have had one of these.
