Hi Bobby,

My son, Thomas, did a science project on that very topic. And the answer is no, there is no correlation between temperature in the incubator and the outcome of the birds' sex. Whether they are male or female is determined during the fertilization process before the eggs are ever incubated. So, sorry, you cannot do anything (to my knowledge) to produce more females.
