ummm i hate to say it but it looks like you are right the 2 whites appear to be cockerels and the 1 buff
 
The one I really want to know is the splash its suppose to be a Hen but so was the blue and he's crowing now. I was only suppose to get one rooster and that is one of the white ones there is also a white hen hopefully. I really want the splash to be a hen. The buff is suppose to be a hen too. They are 5 to 6 months old.
Thanks for your help


 
Hey everyone! Awesome forum!

This is my second silkie and my first time raising it from a chick. This silkie is about 7 weeks old, it's super sweet and doesn't pick on any of the other chicks.
I can't keep any roosters so I really hope it's a girl!

Hi,
Fluff is approximately 5 weeks old. I posted my own thread on this but when I found this thread I thought I would post here to see what everyone thinks. Pullet or Cockerel? I can get more pics if needed. I have another one named Puff but don't have any pics yet. Will post when I do.
Thanks!
 
Okay I will play along again and hopefully the outcome will be better for me this time :) Hen ????

I know I'm not the professional but I would be very surprised if that was a rooster.
You should take a picture of the comb though.

I hate to say it but my Tiny Rooster looked a lot like your little white silkie

...... If you go back a few months in this thread you can see pictures of Tiny.... He had that same swept back crest that your little one has..... but I know NOTHING about sexing chickens ..... so don't take my word for it .....
 
I got these guys at the feed store a month ago. I think they are all roos except for maybe the black one, and possibly the white. What do you think. There is a black frizzle roo in the group photo and one of the reds ducked behind the ramp.
