I've worked with chickens for years. Among lay people, being able to correctly sex a chicken after 2-3 weeks is a difficult skill.

It's incredibly interesting that these people are able to do it so easily at such an early age. It's also put to very disturbing uses. The females go on to be used as layer hens and the males are kill within hours of hatching - generally in gruesome/painful ways.

This whole thing just sounds like a dream for ML. Have anyone tried it yet?

You send some images to an API endpoint, and we send you back a determination of m/f. Sexing as a Service, SaaS?

Isn't there already an app for this on Silicon Valley and subsequently real life? "Not Hotdog"
