Unsure of age but he or she is still pretty young.
I am leaning rooster.
Also unsure of coloring. I originally thought black but I see other colors in him or her as well.
Thoughts?

Hello and welcome to BYC! :welcome
I'm not very good at silkies but I say pullet. Could you get a pic of the comb?
I think the color is black.
I did manage to get one of the little comb there is lol. It would probably help if I had a better idea of age.

Updating because I feel Rockstart had a growth spurt 🤣 he or she went from caring for the smaller chicks to pecking-which I know can be normal to an extent but the comb is still small. Are the longer pieces on the neck the start of streamers or just new feathering coming in and old coming out? 🤔

Still looking like a pullet.
