Our New Black Australorp Chicks

At the corner feed store yesterday we discovered a bunch of four-week old chicks on sale including nine Black Australorps (my favorite hens) so we bought all nine. Posted by Hello

Cute! How many hens to roosters? Our latest brood was 7 to 1...in favour of the boys! :>(

They're all supposed to be pullets but I haven't got out the magnifying glass and done any examinations of them myself.
Breeder's usually say their sexing of chicks is about 95% accurate and the last time we ordered day-olds we got 2 roosters out of 30 chicks (93% pullets).
In the future (if we don't get complaints from neighbors about having a rooster--or even hens for that matter) we hope to hatch our own chicks.
