Silkie sexing

[Valentin]

Hello so I got 2 silkie chickens from a flea market today .they look to be at least 4 months old I wanted to know if they were roosters or hens I am pretty sure they are roosters but just wanted to see your opinion they both have no spurs at all and have not heard crowing yet one is very docile it will let you go pick it up and the other is very skittish . So let me know your opinion I am really hoping for at least one girl.

He's got streamers. That's a male.

If that is both birds, I think they're both cockerels. Sorry.

Assuming these are both...they’re both cockerels. I’m sorry about that, though roosters are great as well!

What are streamers

What are streamers

Look them up. They are feathers that grow from the back of a silkie male’s head.
