the blue silkie isn't showing any signs one way or the other. I have silkies that are 12-16 weeks that I still haven't figured out if they are boys/girls just because they are in that 'inbetween' stage. I have others who I can tell at 8-10 weeks if they were boys or girls...it just depends. You definitely should wait till 3-4 months before you get a solid idea on the blue silkie.

The black chick - so far it looks like a girl. if its supposed to be the same breed as the white roo - then its relatively safe to say its a girl (I'd bank 80% on it being a girl

)
