I'm going to say cockerel, but I don't have much experience with silkies...

Cockerel.

A better picture where we can see the whole bird out in the open might help, but my feeling is that it's a cockerel.

 

[Crazy for Chickens!]

Looking more like a cockerel, but can you get a full body pic, showing saddle feathers?

With a comb like that, I'm going to stick my neck out and say cockerel.
