We live in central Florida (not natives, so I'm still learning about this crazy place and climate) and have three Silkie hens. Silkies aren't good laying hens normally, but we had been getting 2 eggs per day. Now nothing. They aren't molting either. Could it be the summer heat? Everything I...

I'm still confused about whether this Silkie is a roo or hen...6-7 months old much smaller than our other hens of similar age. She hates to have her photo taken, I tried to get a good headshot. She has a super tiny comb and virtually no wattles.

We have three silkies. The white is definitely a hen, she is laying eggs. I'm not sure about the other two. Hoping they are both hens as well. Any ideas?

Thank you.

I asked earlier for help with identifying gender of my Silkie. The photo I originally posted is not the best. Here is a better one. Please assist, I'm terrified that it will start crowing and make my neighbors loose their marbles.
