Hiya, I bought a black silkie called Sid in the summer who is now six months old. I bought it thinking it was a she but in the last few weeks has started to show all the male characteristics and now definitely looks like a he. The only thing is he doesn't crow! Is he too young still? Or is it possible that as we don't have a cockerel that a girl has taken on the role of the male in the group? Within the same group there is a white silkie of the same age who is also beginning to look like a boy but doesn't lay or crow! I don't know whats going on! Any advice would be great!! Thanks
