Just for fun. Any guesses on these 3? The buff one is half the size of the other two.

Are they all the same age? My males (at least in my experience) can be larger and if they are all the same age I would vote that your buff is the only lady

I agree, from seeing how they carry themselves the other two stand up taller, they might be roosters and your buff is a little girl. Of course with silkies it's hard to say 100% until they crow or lay an egg. Your little white silkie looks a lot like mine at that age and mine turned out to be a boy.
The white one is the only one that looks like a nice typey Silkie but also seems to have a big comb coming( male) The other two look like hatchery silkies especially the biggest one (male) The buff needs more time before guessing.

They're too young to be sure of gender, but I'm thinking the Silver one is the only cockerel.
