Hello, I'm buying this chick and it's around 3-4 weeks old. Unknown breed and gender but looking like a silkie mix. It's really pretty so I'm purchasing it. Any guesses on breed or gender?
Very difficult to say what the other parent is but definitely some Silkie. I don't like to try to guess gender before 6 weeks, but my hunch is that it's a cockerel. There looks to be a bit of pink color to the comb.
I was thinking cockerel too due to not much of a tail. At about a month old usually females have longer tails until about 2 months the males get longer tails but don’t quote me on that lol
