Hi! All of these photos I’m about to show you are of MPC chickens. They were all supposed to be females but now that they are older, I’d like another opinion! They are in their flighty stage, so they arent in love with himan contact right now. They used to love being held and pet, but they are all in that ornery age. Hopefully they will calm down. They are all 14 weeks and 5 days old. Thank you!

Silkies are extremely difficult to sex young. Can't tell anything from the pictures. Really need a good shot of bird facing forward with crest held or pulled back, to display FULL extent of comb.

It's difficult to get a good view of hackle & saddle feathers on a white bird. Just not enough definition to show up well. Sometimes you can't be positive of silkie gender until they crow or lay eggs. Appears to be a nice looking silkie.
