I apologize in advance for the bad photos, but can anyone tell if my Silkie-Cochin mix is a pullet or cockerel? (S)he is 5-6 weeks old.

I’m pretty sure my 3 Silkies (purchased from a breeder) and Barred Rocks (purchased from the feed store) are all ladies, but I’m worried the Silkie-Cochin cross that the breeder gave me for free, who I’ve been calling “Big Mamma” is actually a Big Poppa!

On another note, can someone tell me what color they think my silkies are going to turn out? Pretty sure the two are porcelain blue-cream but what about the other one??

I have no personal experience with this breed but I would say cockerel due to his patchy coloring. I am sure you'll get a lot more replys so don't take my word for it.. Lovely bird tho!
