What the hay is this?

[gidgetgoes]

this teenage chicken is like triple the size of her four sisters, she's got feathers on her legs like a cochin, and her head stuff, legs and eyes are deep gray. what the hay is this thing? probably a rooster, herds the others around.

A white non-bearded Silkie. His comb is a little weird, he's probably not show quality.

Yep it is a silkie.
No idea if it is a boy or girl, those are normally wait and see because they are a little odd.

Silkie and its a cockerel. What hatchery is he from?

 

[gidgetgoes]

we got four random chicks from tractor supply, unsexed. i've always wanted a silkie! thanks!

 

[gidgetgoes]

i'm sad that he's a boy because we don't really want a rooster because of the noise (although our hens are so frickin loud i'm not sure that's much of a point). are silkie roos really loud?

Silkie roosters are about as loud as any other cock in my opinion. They are smaller, so sometimes their crows aren't as loud, but they crow just as often.
