Silkies are about 3 months old, no crowing yet. Looking at the buff & white silkies. White one was really difficult to get photos of.

Hens or roo?

I can see why you all say roo, I would too but do girls get pink in the comb area and get bigger there as well? I always figured silkies were flat in that area but mine are still young and I am new to them

Pullets will get bigger and pinker combs before they start to lay, around 5 months, cockerels can get theirs as young as 2 months.
