In the Brooder
I may be in denial, but I have 13 other silkies this same age with specific gender differences. Up until a week ago I thought this was a hen. This bird carries itself like a hen, has a big round poof like my hens...until these wattles showed up and this small comb. The comb is 1/4 the size of my others roosters with little texture or grooves and the wattles are about 1/2 the size of the others.
Has anyone seen a silkie hen with wattles or a small comb? I know It may be wishful thinking but this one really threw me for a loop! (No crow yet either...or attempts at trying)
