EDIT: Can someone move this to Breeds? I messed up the placement...
I just bought five silkie chicks from a friend. They are a mixed bunch, from Murray McMurray, probably splash, white, gray, and black. Also added in the mix were two chicks who had trouble walking. They couldn't rehabilitate them, and so I took them. I need help identifying their sexes. I picked the ones who looked most like hens...
They are all 1 1/2 months old.
The White/Splash Silkie
I took a second look at him/her, and I'm inclined to think this might actually be a cockeral.
Blue/Gray
I most certain that this one is a pullet.
This one is loud...haha Gray Silkie
Gray/Splash Silkie?
Partridge? Crippled, same age as the others, but ten times smaller...
Black Silkie
Black, Crippled, no head tuft. Possibly a mutt...
Any help would be appreciated! I'm just hoping I don't have all-cockeral.
