That would be lovely, if "it" is a she!

Let's come back to this youngin. Will be 15 weeks old this friday. I'm thinking that it's a cockerel. Before it leaves here, I'd like to verify "it" is a he!?

Yep, I agree. Cockerel.

Off with his head! I mean off to his new home I actually got some one looking for a little cockerel. So it works out!

Definitely a cockerel.

Yes that comb gives it away! Good looking boy!

I have a rule of not worrying about it until they are at least 18 weeks old. Even at 24 weeks I have had trouble figuring out if they are roosters or not. I had one silkie who looked like a roo their whole life and then all of a sudden it was a hen. Your silkie is super cute though!

He is cute, but not cute enough to make the cut lol

I think it definitely is a boy but I have a roo without a comb and a hen with a bigger comb. Hens can even have streamers as well.
