Product Information

Beyond the Welsh Harlequin, there are also a few crosses that will produce sex-links where males and females have differently-colored down upon hatching. Sex-linking differs from autosexing in that it is only the result of crossbreeding and won’t carry through to future generations, while autosexing is found in pure breeds. The feet of males are larger than females. The boys have to grow into their extra-large feet. When they waddle, their feet often cross over each other leading to their many stumbles.

Both male and female Abacot Rangers have green bills, but the hens of this breed are dark green, and the drakes have accounts in a lighter green hue.It may be that the females know they will need to be fit and fast to avoid all those amorous boys, or it may be that the boys just do not want to suffer the humiliation of falling face-first into the dirt in front of all their peers because they have big feet. #8. Venting (Also Called the Cloaca) This is just the start of it. When they mature, they honk loudly if they are excited, arguing, looking for someone, or even just getting their nails done – kidding! The honking sound is much more amped up than the male. They are definitely loudmouths! It can be difficult to tell the sexes apart in Appleyards since both males and females look similar when they are young. However, as they mature, the differences become more apparent. Place your thumbs on the sides of the cloaca opening. Now apply the gentlest amount of pressure on either side below the vent very slowly until the walls of the vent are exposed. Identifying sex by bill can only be done from about 2 months old, when they are younger the bills all look the same.

We will discuss their courtship displays in the next section. Meanwhile, let us talk about the act of sex itself.

However, if you pay close attention to their behavior and anatomy as they grow, it’s possible to tell them apart. While you can sex them at two days old, I do not recommend this. You should wait at least until they are two weeks old so that they are a bit more robust and can tolerate the cloacal exam. Rouens can be easily sexed at hatching based on their feather coloration; males will have charcoal gray feathers, while females will have a lighter brownish-gray coloring. Regardless of the breed, all maturing males will develop a drake feather. Either one or two curly tail feathers will grow on the flat tale of a drake. Look to see if there is a penis protruding. The penis will be pink, white, or gray. A male’s penis will protrude when pressure is applied.
