It isn't always 100%, but when they feather out fast..which this one is!..then you can go by that.  And, you want a pointy feathered look at around 5 days old.  You will be able to see the difference better when you have a few to compare with.   Also, the tail, usually starts out before the males..again, the feathering out faster.   I think you have a good chance at a girl here.   Also, see if there are two rows of feathering on that part you have showing, one lapping over the other, with feather tips on that top row as they are on the bottom row.  Hope I am making sense..lol...she's cute. 

Ok yeah I understand now! Haha thanks and I'm really hoping its a girl too;D

Hi there,
We're new chick owners. Had chooks for a while, but this is our first lot of chicks and our first lot of ornamental breeds like the silkie and pekin.
My gosh, the passion for them grew fast. I'm totally in love and want more.


Our Pekin (Bantam Cochin) babies just about a week old.


Our daughter's silkies at about a week old.


Our Barnevelders, also in the first week.
We could only get a hold of 4 so will have to get more next year.


A few of the Pekin chicks today, feathering up into itty bitty mini chickens. LOVE!
