I’m not completely sure on age, could be anywhere from 6-8 weeks old. I know it can be hard to sex silkies but I’m wondering if these are obvious boys? This was our first time with this breed because we picked them up from an overstock bin. We’ve had a bad run with boys in our straight run...

I do have some BO pullets that I brought home at the end of April...
Hello from NE Michigan
I’ve owned chickens for 8 years now and our current flock has a total of 13 but some of the new members may have to move to a new home as they are roosters (I always lose with the straight run purchases lol - our location doesn’t allow any roosters)
