hi there
I am a breeder of show silkies.
Your silkies are still too young to tell if roosters or hens
you have to wait until at least 4 months old
hope this helps.

Thank you, this is the first time I got silkies and I am used to being able to tell hens from roosters by this age. I guess I will have to be more patient.

no problem
yes silkies take a while to mature.
goodluck with them
I hope they are both hens
