Vent sexing.

If you can't laugh at yourself and in turn, everyone else, when you or they do something amusing, life is far too serious. Some folks just find more things amusing than others.

Another way to sex them is to wait for the rooster to purr. A lot of times you have to just about wait for an old style or plain silkie to crow before you know what sex they are - you can wait for them to purr if you don't want to learn to vent sex. smile
