boys or girls?

[Paige2634]

So my 3 babies are around 6 weeks old now, can anyone tell if they’re boys or girls yet?

Welcome to BYC! Silkies are infamous for difficulty sexing at this age. Hopefully someone will chime in with more experience.
Enjoy those fuzz babies!!!!

The first one s a early cockerel.
The others are too young. Post pics of their combs and saddles at 12 weeks. Silkies are slow maturing.

Just wanted to let you guys know, you were right! I got two roos and one hen. Both the boys started crowing last week.

Are you able to keep them?

Yes! I have 5 hens and now the 2 boys and everyone has been getting along great, I just hope it stays like this!
