all the brahmas look like hens!

not sure about the silkies though... I've never had them....

 

[SMan]

I sure hope they are all girls (think silkie #1 is a roo though), they )Brahmas) were supposed to be bantams but they are just a little smaller than my BO.

Way too early still for me to tell.

Looks to be girls ... But as stated before .. I too do not know about the silkies.

 

[Chickenyouout]

brahmas are sooo hard to sex cause they are very masculine even the hens...the light ones are pullets , the dark are cockerels...and the buff...i belive are also cockerels... honestly brahmas from my experience are the worst of chickens...especially the males.. on the other hand your silkie is gorgeous but silkies are imposible to sex...

 

[SMan]

Anyone else have any guesses? The brahmas act about the same, with the buff being more docile. The silkies are completly docile and take handling well, but one has the crazy comb size I just hope shes a she. Thanks for the replys also.
