6 weeks on Monday

Hello, these cuties will be 6 weeks on Monday.
Does anyone know if they are girls or boys?
The first 3 are the same chick
The last 2 are another chick

Thank you

Too early to tell for silkies I think, they are weirdly androgynous. I was still second guessing the gender on a few of mine until they started laying.

They are gorgeous! Such great personalities too, four silkies and one White Plymouth Rock were my starter flock.

Awwwww
The silkies are so cute.
They look like they have fluffy boots on

They look beautiful as adults too! These are two pullets at about nine or ten weeks old I think. Not adults yet but they're starting to get that body type.

They are good with kids too, my nephews love to hold them.

I have a couple white ones too.
They are all cuties.
I want to keep them all but if any are roosters they have to go unless they are quiet. I am not sure if that is possible with a rooster

Awesome to hear!
I currently have a rooster that i am trying to rehome because he has started attacking me and my youngest. Sadly he has to go.
I am trying to avoid him going to the pot
