It's actually extremely hard to tell baby chicks apart until they are quite a bit older. You can learn to tell the difference by looking at the chick's vent, but this is hard, not always accurate, and a bit disgusting.

After a month or two, most roosters start to develop slightly bigger, redder combs and wattles than the pullets, depending on the breed. Even then, some roosters will develop later and some pullets get red combs and wattles early. If you still can't tell after one or two months, then after three months or so, you definitely should be able to tell. The young roosters will almost certainly have noticeably bigger, redder combs by this time, and be making 'rooster-ish' sounds, and most or all will be crowing.

Most people cannot tell baby chicks apart, but telling slightly older chicks apart gets easier the longer you keep chickens.

You can know if your chick is a boy or girl by their wings. If you look at their wings,if the row of feathers are uneven(Some shorter than others)its a female. If its a male,the row of feathers on the wing should be even. Male chicks should also have a large red spot on their head. The females red spot is smaller than the male chicks. If you want to know more on this subject than look it up on Google.

Most animals can be distinguishable through their reproductive organs. For example, male leopards have testicles hanging down. However, some animals. like the lion, have distinguishable features, like manes, so you can tell. You can figure this out depending on the animal using a nature guide.

This is impossible, except some plants can be both genders. Lirker1: A clown fish can switch from male to female if there aren't enough females in the school.

A hermaphrodite is an organism that has reproductive organs normally associated with both male and female sexes. Earthworms are both male and female but must have a second worm to reproduce.
