bullx100% 681 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 not a 100% on this but a hens tail will point upwards and a stags tail should be pointing down or horizontal.this is from when the birds are on the ground and not in your hand as they lift and driop there tails for balance and i think the males stand taller and are genraly a bigger bird.......but as i say im not a 100% on that mate as im fairly new to the gamefowl world.

patterdalejoel 669 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 first is stag second is hen fourth is hen last who knows.... look at saddle and hackle feathers, pullets will be rounded cocks will be pointy and shiny, catch the light. cocks heads will be redder also. you will only learn through experience.

General lee 979 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 I'm no expert but I don't think the tail pointing up or down is a indication of gender it just takes time the stags should be heavier and stronger looking as that mature not sure of any other way of telling Quote Link to post Share on other sites
