Females typically have a dark, sharp "chipmunk" stripe; males are paler and often have a diffuse white spot on their heads.
Can be bred together to produce more autosexing chicks. autosexing
Breeds like the Rhodebar, Welbar, and Wybar follow similar naming and genetic conventions. Autosexing vs. Sex-Linked Hybrids Females typically have a dark, sharp "chipmunk" stripe;
Research indicates that (made possible by autosexing) can lead to improved production traits. For instance, separate rearing can contribute to higher final body weights in females and better carcass uniformity in broiler lines. Females typically have a dark
While both allow for easy sorting, they are genetically distinct:
