2 mottled Cochin bantams roos or pullets???!

[silkiechik101]

I bought these 2 and paid extra for "female" but I'm really thinking they are both Roos!!! They both attack me and bite me when I put my hands in the coop- they both act crazy and freak out when I put treats in - and they both are very possessive of the other chicks in the coop??! Here are pics of both

Can't figure out how to add multiple pics- here's the other chick - they are both 9 weeks old (Monday)

Really?? I can't have roosters - especially these little nasty brats ! Lol...

I have three from last year's batch, only one hen, I choose straight run.

cockerels - need to see a headshot of the silkie showing full comb development.

Btw- all 3 ended up as hens! The Cochins Also got much friendlier as the grew

Good to hear, and I can't believe I was so wrong.

Don't feel bad- everyone thought they were Roos! And- the one Cochin took close to 8 months before we knew for sure
when "she" laid an egg!?!!!
