Sorry i wouldn't have a clue but I've heard silkies are hard to sex even at the age of the ones you have got pictures of. Also it is very difficult to see each individual birds faces and what not so i hope an expert silkie determinator will come along :)
 
Silkies are very difficult to sex before 4-5 mos. of age and sometimes not till they crow or lay. Are these hatchery silkies?
 
Thanks for the replays what about the black minocra's are they too young as well?

No these are not hatchery silkies a person not far from me just breeds them I think all together there might be 15 for sale I just thought they where nice looking birds to introduce in to my purebred Silkie flock I just don't want all roosters
