CAnyou tell me more about sexing silkies at 5 weeks old?????

Of course

Some of the most obvious males will already make the trilling noise when there is danger. You will start to see redness in some combs and they will be more pronounced. The hens will have more head fluff than the males, and often a bigger tail as well. The males will stand taller off the ground, and are often the braver ones (don't count on that though

). Your males are the ones that wander away from the mother first to fend for themselves.
Please note none of these are conclusive by themselves. Altogether, you can have an educated guess but with silkies there are always surprises

Good luck

Thank you
