    Hi, I have four baby silkies. They are about two months old. One of them fights all of them, it has all its hackles come up too. The others dont do this. Is this a cockerel? Or just a dominant chick at this point?

    it can mean its just dominant, but it sounds like you have a cockrel!

    They're just pets to us so this isn't a problem :) Just curious. Thank you for your help! x
