Is this Silkie a Rooster?

Date sort Score sort
A large comb that spreads out if its a boy or a small realitively thin comb for a girl. Genetics can differ these but those are the basics

I think I've got another Roo .... Looking for some confirmation on this 15 week old Silkie Bantam.
Ashtree said I might have two.

I finally figured out why you think I said you might have 2 roosters. I quoted another poster that said "thats a cockerel" to which I said "X2" as in times two, meaning I agree. I dont think you have two cockerels.

I think thats a pullet, I was agreeing with someone else that the first bird you posted was indeed a boy.

Ahhhh.... Thank you for the clarification. :)
 
I'm thinking pullet. I'm not seeing any "streamers" (long point feathers) in the crest. It looks fairly round and has relatively small comb and wattles.
