Don't laugh now, but the dangle really does work, That was how I selected my wife and sure enough, a pullet. ROTFLMBO.

The chicks are out in the coop! I have them separated, for now. But they can see each other. My flock was a little surprised to hear the rooster crow. He is the sweetest thing. He only crows, little crows! The chicks were kind of timid. They are 9 weeks old now, and not quite as big as the others, but larger then most 9 week olds.
My question is, how long should they be separated? Until the little ones are bigger? for a certain amount of weeks?
Do I always have to keep the rooster away from the ones I don't want him canoodling with?
Haystack - Glad to hear that dangling worked out for you! What a surprise that would have been!!! :)
Someone dangled Haystack?
