90% Accuracy

I think we may have discovered why all the chicks were being so mean to Daisy and pecking at her.  When I checked on Daisy's food and water this morning I took a really good look at her and noticed something quite different from the rest of the chicks we had ordered.  Daisy's tail feathers were very obviously much larger and sticking straight up.  Is it possible that Daisy could turn out to be a rooster?  Are the other chicks picking on her because Daisy is a girly name for a ROOSTER???!!!

Well, the hatchery does guarantee  90% sexing accuracy.  With the amount of chicks we ordered we could expect up to three of them to be male.
