My father has raised chickens as long as I can remember and I learned a lot from him.I have about 50 chickens on my farm,and he always says if the chick sits on his mother's back it will be a rooster.It is otherwise hard to tell until the comb begins to grow.I have several breeds that are very hard to tell about even after several months.

Can't say anything other than what has been said already in the above link,
As said it all depends on the breed of chicken on weather it can be feather sexed...
I have heard of the method above that pampano states however I haven't tried it so don't know if it works or not :)
Good luck

You can't until they are at least a few more weeks old and when they start to get there feathers
