Hi all! Please help I’m too anxious to play the waiting game. I have two silkies left and one has a very rounded all even poof and then my questionable.. are these streamers??? They are 12 weeks

Looks like it to me. Comb looks to be getting fairly wide/large as well. Likely have a cockerel there.

I thought 'streamers' was another name for the sickle feather's on a males tail?

Streamers in Silkies are the longer feathers in the crest "mostly at the back of the crest" that males get but not females.

Aaah ok!

Thank you all for the replies. Definite he is also showing other signs.. standing tall, being brave maybe I was just wishful thinking that I had another silkie hen

I couldn’t bear the waiting game but I’m actually glad he’s a he. I was hoping for more girls but I guess I’ll just have to get more girls

Looks like a pullet to me. I wouldn't call those definite streamers. Just funky feathers that a lot of silkies get.
