Beside the cock bird crowing and a DNA test ,what other methods of sexing are used.I have looked at the difference in beak,head colour and width.

Sexing by the beak is a 50/50 exercise no I can't sex them with any confidence so if you can buy 6 or so work out
what you need and sell on the rest.DNA is the only sure way of sexing quickly.
