Can anyone tell me what type and sex chick this is? My husband and I went to a farm to buy some silkies and the lady insisted we take this white baby as well. Now I'm starting to think it maybe a rooster. (We have all hens as far as I know, but please tell me if you see otherwise as I am a novice:)) Also, our poor tan silkie has a crossed beak and although seems happy and energetic, she is not nearly growing as fast as her other silkie partners that are the same age. They are all 4 weeks old. Any help would be great. Thank you.

With several comments about finding it hard to obtain good quality Brabanters, has anyone purchased from Sandhill? Where have you found good quality stock? If our town changes it's regs, this is... -
I like everything about it except how it looks right now. I know it lays decently. It is a great part of my great waterfowl flock. -
First, watching a runner duck run is awesome. They can find their own food. They aren't like pekins in water. Mine haven't started laying but I heard their decent. -
Its not as fat and slow as a pekin, but its not frail either. I want a mallard but I don't want a flying bird. The rouen is great for that. -
They are my calmest birds and are easiest to catch. They eat less than Pekins. I heard they also lay well, but mine are younger.
