Help – is this Silkie a roo?

[Bbbbeavers]

I got four silkie pullets about a month ago. I have suspicions this one is a rooster because she (wishful thinking!) is bigger than the others, has more of a comb than the others, and is less scared of the bigger chickens than the others. Roosters aren’t allowed in my city though, so I want to find out sooner rather than later before I get too attached. I have read here that silkies are hard to gender before maturity so I appreciate any help.

I'm not an expert, but we just re-homed our too Silkie roos and they look just like yours. How old are they? Ours are 6 months and have been crowing for about a month now. I thought I had pics but I'm a bad chicken mommy and don't have any of the Silkies

Male. See that slicked back hair do? That’s how you can tell

The white is a female.

This red is male. See the streamers shooting out of his head?
They are both 13 weeks in these pics.

Looks like a cockerel to me.

Aww dang. Looks like lil Janet is going back to the farm. Thank you everyone for your quick responses.

The white looks like a pullet, and the black a cockerel.

Hi! I don't know for sure if it's a he or she. But I just wanted to add in here that I have a silkie who everyone said was a boy until she was five months old and laid an egg because the hair in the back wasn't rounded, it was spikey...and I thought it was a rooster too... sometimes you really can't tell until the first crow or egg.

Where are they from? Sometimes the breeding can influence their physical characteristics
