Not sure but I started a new thread being how this is a different bird. I got this guy/girl yesterday the lady said she didn't know how old or the sex of it.

I am going to guess 8 weeks old but it is just a guess. Silkies are notoriously difficult to sex- I am going to guess a cockerel, but I have been fooled by silkies before so I will say he/she is still just a bit too young to know for sure. The crest is very tall but I don't see very obvious streamers yet. And the attitude/stance is a bit pullet-like but it could be due to the age.

Beautiful chicken!
 
Thanks. I do have some babies I decided to put with him/her and it is mothering or fathering them. I figured it would be mean to them but it is actually doing well.
