    Silkie... I won't know till it crows

    This guy is a little over 8 weeks old now.. my first and only silkie... all my research has told me it's impossible to sex silkie till they lay or crow, but the head feathers are confusing.. they aren't messy with streamers like I've seen on other roos... any opinion greatly appreciated😊

    8 week old Silkie Hen or Roo

    Hi!! I’m a new silkie owner! A local breeder had some for sale and said this one could possibly be a pullet. And I know they’re hard to sex which is why we haven’t had this breed until now. Could anyone give me any educated guesses? They hatched 3/1 so he/she is 8 weeks.

    8 Week Old Silkies - Girls or boys?

    Hi all! I have 4 8 week old Silkies. This post contains 3 of them, as I was sick of getting covered in chick poo to get these photos, haha. The fourth has a single comb, perhaps is a Frizzle cross, so jury is still out on that one. What do you think of these 3 8-week-olds? Pullets or Cockerel...

    8 week silkie sex

    hello all (again!) after discovering one of my shes is really a he, I've decided to ask my sister if she'd be willing to take him in the future to keep him in the family.
