Starting from dried blood spots or feather follicle samples, you extract genomic DNA to perform PCR. The resulting DNA fragments are then separated via gel electrophoresis, allowing you to visually confirm the sex of your birds based on the resulting band patterns. The table and the image below provide a quick guide for interpreting your results correctly.
