Silkie Rooster or Hen / What color?

[Itreei]

Please tell me this is a hen? The name is Angel because s/he takes care of the other chicks and has since about a week old.

What color is this considered?

How old? Likely a cockerel with the red color on the wings.

I'd say very likely cockerel. Not sure on the color, though.

For color maybe Splash? I don’t know much about silkies

Thanks. This one is by far my favorite. It’s the friendliest and prettiest one of the bunch. I can’t keep roosters though :-(

The city will not allow them. I hope I can find a good home for him. He is absolutely beautiful. When he is in the sun, he is a very light gray and white, with just a touch of red on the tips of his wings. His mom is a porcelain and dad was light gray.
