Dangerous chickens?!

So the silkies are only 4 months old? How sure are you of their genders? Sexing silkies can be difficult.

Well, I’ll try to post pictures. But my white silkie is full blown rooster - rowdy and crowing.
My ‘mean’ black silkie I’m pretty confident is a hen (but who knows) and my gray silkie looks and acts like a hen as well.

I’m pretty sure You’ve got three cockerels

Too little space is the big cause of chicken fights .... silkies aren’t fighters having one that’s the bottom on the pecking order is setting them up to be defensive and not like to be handled .

If you can’t baby the gentle breeds don’t get them , they are amazing if treated right

Those are some whopper combs and wattles for four months old

I don't do Silkies, but totally agree with Golden here! Big combs and wattles, and only four months old.

Look at more pictures of Silkies; I just checked in at 'feathersite.com' and yours are boys!

Agree with above, you have 3 cockerels. I have 2 five month old pullets, and they don't have any visible comb as of yet.

I'd get rid of 2 of the 3, replace with a few females, and increase space for the birds!

Are you serious?!?!?!
Are they not crowing yet because my white Roo is at the top of the pecking order?? Or they just need to mature. Omg... I can’t have three roosters and one hen

Could be that they are still immature or that the other one is on top, or a combination. I would suggest getting rid of all three and upgrading your coop size. Then you can get Helen some friends. Or even better, buy some sex links and stick them under Helen if she goes broody.

I stopped reading the thread when it said 2year old daughter and a peck. Is she beautiful? Does she have any scars on her beautiful face? Does she have beautiful eyes? You get my point.
