Is my silkie a hen or too? 17 weeks old

I can’t tell if it’s a hen or roo! Help!

I‘m thinking cockerel. It‘s hard to sex Silkies so no guarantees that I’m right, or anyone here is right.

Ty for commenting on my thread! I’m new to being a chicken owner. Even if he’s a roo he’s my fav

Looks like a male to me... has streamers, developed comb and wattles.. are you able to keep him? He is very beautiful!

Yeah that's a male. Should start crowing soon.
