Update: This little one is 9 months old and still no crowing or laying. Interestingly enough I felt the distance between his/her pelvic bones and the bones are about the same distance apart as my Silkie hen that is already laying (this is all done externally BTW). It has no interest in mating...
All the same bird. She/he is so girlie in every way except the streamers. It has short, round feathers on the neck, didn't start growing a comb till about 6 months...this is a hatchery bird too. Haha, this one is tricky. Glad to see that one other person has a hen with streamers. I'll let you...
This little one is smaller than my known girl (same age), dainty, only a small bump for the comb, girlie in every way except it looks like it has streamers. Can some Silkie experts chime in please?
