12 week old silkies mounting eachother

[Kuekenkrazy]

So I have 2 bantam silkies (total of 4 but the other 2 I am pretty sure are hens) and I know they are hard to sex until someone starts laying or crowing. But my ginger colored silky jumped on the back of my black silkie and pulled his or her head feathers for a few seconds as if he or she was trying mate he or she. We always thought the black silkie would be the male because it is bigger and more 'outgoing' looking out for the flock. So what do you think?

Your buff silkie appears to be a rooster/cockerel :'( he's a cutie though!

Yep the top is a boy. The black one doesn’t look like any real wattle development.
Hard to tell only black one who is bearded. I just feel them.

Thank you! I will have to grope my chicken later today. Is the one in your picture a roo or a hen?

Both the black and the partridge are pullets and the white one is a cockerel.

After his cowboy action I was almost certain. I am Not worried about roos though I live in a rural Part of Bavaria so he gets to stay. In the case of Two roos though I would have to find some more Ladies.

So I didn't feel any wattles but he/she let me give some headscratches so we could get these pictures to let the experts decide

So far a girl.

Mine isn’t trying to mount anyone but he sure is trying to get the girls to notice him. Most of them aren’t having his shenanigans yet.
