I sure hope you are right!!! I bought one hen, one Cockerel and two too young to tells One Im fairly sure is a cockerel...this one has been hard.. if it isnt a pullet it is going to be a pretty boy!

boy?? or girl?? Somewhere around 10 weeks old.

any new pics of this cutie? I am guessing girl based on these pictures, curious to see what it looks like 3 weeks later : )

Can some one please give me a guess as to what type and sex these "LADIES" may be....I know they are silkies, maybe buff and black?

 

[flowerchicks]

Non bearded buff and black. Buff looks like it may be a cockerel.

 

[babyshaq540]

noooooooo.

 

[flowerchicks]

noooooooo.

it's just a guess, they are young... think GIRL

i know i know, im optimistic, but so far my favorite is the buff....the black one, not so much, maybe she just has to get used to me. Raised them from birth.

Just speaking for myself here but I find my boy chicks more friendly when they are little. Not always but most of the time for me. They are very young but the black one looks pretty girly to me!
