Hi I'm getting a couple of young silky at the weekend. Was told there 6 weeks old, she said they look like hens how can I be sure she is selling me hens and not cocks! Is there any noticeable differents I need to check for.
You can pay $15-25 for a DNA test. Of course, you would already have to purchase the birds, collect the samples and mail them in and then wait for the results to come back. Other than that, you're at the mercy of time. Most of mine I can't tell gender on until they're 3-6 months old, though I do occasionally get a boy thats blaringly obvious. And sometimes chicks I'm just sure are girls, blossom overnight into boys.
