16 week silkie no crow-- any chance i have a girl?

Unfortunately with Silkies you'll usually be waiting till about 6 months old for an egg, or sometimes near a year! ..She looks like a pretty pullet to me

I hope so! I should probably just do the DNA test, but I keep thinking at this point I'm so close I may as well wait

Girl!!

Girl!!

Hopefully so! I'll continue updating until I know one way or the other

Ok I'm feeling like I've got a boy because all of the girl tails are pom poms and this morning mine has a pronounced point developing on the tail I'm hoping it's just a quiet little dude since so far it has no interest in crowing in spite of being surrounded entirely by women birds

Yes well Silkies are good at tricking us

I also think he looks a bit masculine.

Comb pics please.
I am getting male vibes, but it’s not certain without more pics.

Ok guys, 21 weeks and I'm pretty sure Gumball is a dude (although a silent one, not much to say even in normal chatter and not a crow). Hes going through a rough phase, but definitely getting some roosterish neck feathers
