My friend has a two month old Silkie they got from a breeder. The breeder says it’s female but just curious and trying to help them out. Thoughts?

Here we go again with a questionable Silkie. Asking for a friend; the bird is around 3-4 months old. I’m leaning towards pullet…?

Hi everyone. A friend of mine was wondering what this pair might be crossed with. I’m thinking Silkie (because of the five toes), but not sure what the other half might be. My wild guess would be Silkie x Cochin for the female, and Ameraucana x Silkie for the male? Any thoughts?

Hi everyone. I have a 2 month old Silkie from a batch of eggs I got off of EBay. All the others have a flat comb still except for this one. I’m assuming because of the difference in comb (and it being large already) that this is a male? Bad genetics or possibly a Silkie cross?

I saw a post for someone who has Silkies and Buff Orpingtons available. They mentioned that they are all approximately 4 1/2 years old and are all laying. I can see that the Orpingtons still might be, but doesn’t that seem a little long for the Silkies?

Does this look like a male or female? 6 months old. No crowing.

Hello everyone! Trying to help a friend out. What are your thoughts on these birds? Cockerels or pullets? They’re all 12 weeks.

This is going to be pretty vague but it’s all I really have as far as info. Someone bought a Silkie from me a couple weeks ago. The Silkie is female and 6 months old and has been vaccinated but just for Marek’s. My flock has been fine, but they mentioned that overnight the Silkie randomly died...

Trying to help a friend figure out the sex. Bird was bought as a straight run chick from a feed store. 12 week old Delaware. I’m leaning towards cockerel but that is still a small pink comb…

Straight run, four day old variety Coturnix quail chicks. Located in San Jose, CA and they are $5 each.

I’ve been bouncing back and forth with this Silkie in particular trying to decide it’s gender. It is 6 months old. I’m leaning towards cockerel but not 100% sure? No crowing, no eggs (figured too young regardless). It does “call” the others over whenever I feed them though, if that matters...

So we started off with 52 eggs. Candled them around day 7. After the candling it narrowed down to 40 that were developing. From day 1-17 we had temp at 99/100 and humidity at 50-55%. The incubator that is being used has a fan and is self-turning (turns eggs every two hours). The incubator has...

Hi all! My friend sent me over some photos of their Silkies. Trying to guess gender for them. I’m thinking both splash are male, one buff is male (the one in the background), and one buff is female? They are 9 weeks old. These were the best photos they were able to get. Thoughts?

I have six month old, Marek’s vaccinated white Silkie pullets available. Located in San Jose, CA. They are $40 each.

I have five month old, Marek’s vaccinated Golden Comet pullets available. Located in San Jose, CA. They are $30 each.

6 weeks old. This one’s comb is already red compared to the others, and is a little bigger. I was thinking cockerel 🤔?

Six week old chicks no longer need heat lamp. Have been vaccinated for Marek’s and are coop ready. Five are males and five are female. Have the following breeds left: 1 male Birchen Cochin bantam 2 female Birchen Cochin bantams 1 male Silver Sebright bantam 1 female Silver Sebright bantam 1...

Any guesses on breed? I was thinking Wyandotte? As far as gender I’m leaning towards pullet…

Posting more for a friend. They are all 7 weeks. Cockerels or pullets?
