MEET THE FOUNDER
ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm Jessica Bari — founder and owner of Flock Forensics and Bari Farms, where my passion for animals, science, and family all come together.
I have been breeding poultry for many years and each season ran into the issue of not being able to accurately sex my chicks. I was wasting so much time, energy, space and feed to grow up tons of roosters and then need to figure out what to do with them all!
DNA testing was an option, but it was hard to access and pricey. After TONS of research, blood, sweat, tears and sleepless nights, Flock Forensics was hatched.
As the mom of a child with special needs, I now have the opportunity to make a living doing what I love and be able to support all of my son's needs during the day.
MY PROMISE TO YOU
Rest assured that each sample you send is handled with care, precision and respect for the animals and families behind them.

THE CHALLENGE
THE PROBLEM WE SOLVE
Many bird species are monomorphic, meaning males and females look identical. Traditional methods like vent sexing are stressful, inaccurate, and often require waiting months until physical differences appear.
For breeders, this uncertainty means wasted resources — growing out birds only to discover they're the wrong sex for breeding programs. For backyard keepers, it often leads to unexpected roosters and unhappy neighbors.
DNA sexing eliminates the guesswork. With just a few feathers or an eggshell membrane, we can determine sex with 99.9% accuracy — often within 48 hours of receiving your sample.
BLOOD SAMPLE TESTING
Determine gender using a controlled blood sample for the most accurate and reliable DNA results.
FEATHER TESTING
Non-invasive method using freshly plucked chest feathers with blood roots.
