Any guesses on my satins? 13 & 17 weeks old

I posted about my silkie mixes 6 weeks back.

So here’s an update for take 2 on gender!

Paint Satin should now be 13-14 weeks, and Black frizzle is at 17 weeks or so, but she/he definitely has stunted growth, so don’t I wouldn’t use her age as any kind of reference.

Please pardon the dirty faces, i feed a fermented mash, and as a result they always seem to have food caked onto their face. Paint is also dirty looking from having dust bathed in some wood ash...

If you’re looking for streamers-
I trimmed the sides of paint’s crest around the eyes, but not the top.

Frizzle’s crest on the other hand, has pretty much been completely lopped off about 3 weeks ago.

I couldn’t get a comb image for the frizzle, i it’s similar in size to paint’s, but with an extra little ridged protrusion out the center.





also videos...

I think you have both girls.
I'm not really qualified to give my opinion on this though

The paint is a cockerel, but I can't tell with the frizzle.

what gave it away? the hackles? he’s definitely “felt” male to me since the beginning

I see some points in the hackles, & I see streamers on the back of the crest. I can barely make out saddles though.
Comb is also quite large.

Oooh. I love me some satins.

The paint appears to be female. Do you have close up of the comb on the frizzled one?
