I would not totally use the spur method. I have had female babies that were sexed that way that turned into males as they got older. They did not really change sexes the spurs just went undetected by the person who " new what he was doing ". Just thought I would share because it cost me a year of feeding to get the animals replaced with a baby from the next year. I will always back up the spur method with probing to make sure it really is a female.



Thanks Ryan
