You are raising baby chick from egg when thay hatch out how can you tell what sex thay are?

It can be done but on the small farm it is difficult. It takes specialized knowledge to visually sex a chick unless it is a sex-link breed, these are often sold by hatcheries and are most often meat birds. It is usually best to raise the chicks and watch for gender specific behavior at the 4 to 8 week time period. Males will be more outgoing and grow combs and wattles more quickly than the hens. The young roosters will respond differently to perceived "danger" and play fight etc.

Can you get pregnant one day before you ouvlate?

No, pregnancy does not occur until ovulation-- ovulation is the process of the egg being released. Once the egg has been released it can be fertilized with sperm. If you have sex one day before you ovulate, it is possible to get pregnant. (Perhaps this is what you actually meant by your question?) Sperm can live inside a woman for several days-- So if you have sex the day before your egg is released, chances are, there are still living sperm inside you. It is also possible to get pregnant having sex the day after ovulation.
