Boy or Girl? Silkies-Update on Pg 2!

[JayDe]

I've posted this question before when they were much younger. Here are updated pictures of my 3 silkies. I'm pretty sure the blue is a boy. I think he's trying to crow and he stands up straight in alarm with my Orpington Roo. What do you think of the others? Originally we thought the partridge was a boy, but now we're unsure because the blue who is younger is larger than him and the splash (pullet?) is about the same size. They are all 4 months old now (Hatched Oct5-14th)..I included extra pictures of the partridge because he's the one that's confusing us. Our rooster also mounts him--but I assume that newly developed roosters might mount anyone??

I'd say your partridge is a roo. He looks very rooish to me. The splash is a pullet & the blue a roo.

Blue is a boy (but you knew that!), Splash is a gorgeous girl, and I think Partridge is a boy.

I agree with Gracefulbantams and danischi24

I think your partridge is a boy because he is colored like my silkie roo. Partridge pullets usually have penciling which helps differentiate between girl or boy. I say your splash is a pullet and the blue a boy

Gorgeous birds! Who did you get them from?

What is penciling? I am new to all of this.

Thank you! I bought them from Bobbi Porto

We love them!

Splash and Partridge are pullets, Blue is a cockerel.
