How Old?

How old should Jackson babies be before they are ready to go to new homes?

Thanks Shari

With babies I tried to wait til they were 4 months and started growing horns so they were sexable but I did have several that bought them at 6-8 weeks old unsexed.

I thought you could tell the males from the females? or can you?

I sold my jackson babys when they was 2-3 month old and i could see if it was males or females.

You can tell if they are male or female as soon as they start to grow horns, most will start to grow horns at around 12 weeks but the thing is that some females will have tiny horns that only grow to be 1/16" to 1/8" so I wait until the horns are about 1/2" before selling them for positive 100% sexing in the case that a female might have tiny horns and that is usualyl at 16 weeks. The first baby jax I bought back in the early 90's was sold to be as a male and when I received it there were tiny horn tips that never grew any longer and it was a female.
