taffy apple 32 Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) have always been taught that if you pick them up with their legs between your fingers then a cocks legs will remain streight and a hen will lift her legs.....try it and let me know...not scientific but a rough guide....some believe and some dont.....you might also find that the males legs will be longer and thicker than the hens, but this is quite hard at only a day old and easier when a bit more developed the same as shinier feathers and spurs...
