Does it have spurs? At 8 months they should have spurs and crowing.

No crowing no spurs
This girl/guy hatched out in March
I thought the reason he/she was not crowing was because the other roo in the pen was the head roo.

Wanted to add this roo is the other in the cage with him/her he crows and he is the same age.

Many birds, especially silkies, mature at different rates. Most breeds would by now have prominent spurs and be crowing, but a lot of silkie males won't get spurs for quite a while and I've had some not crow until nearly a year old.

Thanks for all the info lilpeeps and everyone eles info too. I still think this guy is a guy.

I have no use for him at all due to the single comb and the curled toes. I was hoping he would be a she and I could use him as a broody.

I'v looked and looked for this guy a nice pet home but I guess noone has room for him. :|
