Help me sex my three silkies?

[brunchisyum]

I am hoping all 3 are girls!

Gonzo is the biggest and is a couple days older than the other two. SHe seems to have an ombré where his head is dark and he gets lighter toward his bottom. Gabby is the smallest and spunkiest- she is all black and the darkest. Gorda is the medium sized one with a more uniform dark grey. Any help would be appreciated. They are 11-13 weeks old here.

Thanks!

I cannot see see from the pictures but females will have blue ears at least mine do.

Not all Silkie Hen's have blue ears, I have blue, white, even plumb ears on my Silkies.

First, Silkies are notoriously hard to sex, some have to wait for crow or lay before knowing for sure... also, all Silkies are supposed to have blue earlobes, but not all do...
From your pics I'm not seeing any yet that scream cockerel, but might just be the pics... best way to tell is to watch the crests... hens crests tend to stay poofier and in an even, more round ball... cockerels get 'streamers', little pieces longer than the rest, in their crests that sweep back from their heads... *think David Bowie's hair in the movie Labyrinth*
