Funky chickens have sexual-identity issues





Sex cells in the bodies of chickens can lead to some individuals that appear half male and half female. The female side is brown with a small wattle and slight build, while the male side is white with a large wattle, large breast musculature and heavy bone structure. Some chickens have sexual-identity issues, waddling around with half-male and half-female plumage.  Now researchers have figured out the cause of the gender-confusing traits: Half of their bodies are full of female sex cells, while the other half contains mostly male cells.
