Best guesses on gender? Silkies!!

[GemHensandFriends]

I have a 3 month old Silkie and a 6 week old showgirl Silkie. I know it’s too early to tell the gender but I thought it would be fun to see what y’all guess. I will be sending out their DNA samples this weekend so I’ll be finding out their genders within the next 2 weeks.

Very early, as you've mentioned.
Need better photos of combs.

My guesses:
1st one - pullet.
Showgirl - likely cockerel.

I’m guessing pullet for both of them.
Showgirls got a funky comb, but no wattles to speak of.
Please update when you get the results!

Your showgirl has something going on with its feathers. You should check for external parasites and possibly up the protein content in their feed (20%, like a Flock Raiser or All Flock).

Thank you for the suggestion. I just brought her home recently and she doesn’t have any external parasites but I will get a higher protein feed. I got the smallest one so maybe the older and bigger chicks picked on her.
