No waddles visible. The “mullet-ness” of the crest has been playing tricks on me because he/she had a lot of picked feathers from other birds in the open run at the breeder that I purchased this baby from. I’ve had him/her on Nutrena NatureWise Feather Fixer feed and the crest, hackles, and...
Maple has been one of the sweetest Silkie chicks we have and continues to be. We have 3 Silkies and as they developed we noticed that Maple grew faster than his "sister" Marble. We have had 5 suspected cockerels over these past few months, 4 have turned out to be just that..boys! However Maple...
I know they’re notoriously hard to sex until laying or crowing. Any input on these guys ? I tried to notate what I thought they were. A lot have similar features so if I can see what you’re seeing to distinguish between cockerel and pullet for the rest of them and that will help tremendously...

I will preface by saying that I am a first time chicken owner (but long time animal rescuer) from the city and desperately need help!!
I ordered 5 buff silkie chickens at the end of June from an online supplier and they all amazingly arrived healthy and adorable. They immediately took to each...
I have 3 silkies I got in late February. So about 9 weeks old-ish. I believe the white and one of the buffs are cockerels. And the one I believe to be the pullet is mixed cause of the way her wings look.. any clarification would be greatly appreciated!
Pullet?
Feathers have a dark splotch...
