silkie sexing

[DoveStar]

My silkie is just over 4 weeks old, and I am hoping for a pullet!

I know she is a bit young for sexing, just wondering if anyone had guesses.

I tried to get good pictures, but she is the flighty one of the group.

Does anyone have any ideas?

It's really too early to give you a good guess. In a few weeks make sure you get a good close up of the comb as that is typically a good place to start. Next would be to see if it has streamers coming off the back of the head (a nice profile pic taken from the side). And then stance. I have been following this thread for months and have read page after page since it started. I am no expert but I've found this to be the typical things needed to make a guess.

Alright, thanks!

Maybe we can liken waiting to find out the silkie's sex to pregnancy in the old days. Have to wait months to see what you've got. Good luck!

Perty Gertie is right, like the old days you found out what you had once the doctor slapped the baby on the backside.

Any idea what sex this one might be? About 4 weeks old.
