It's too early, but what the heck. Silkie guesses? :) PIC HEAVY

[featherz]

I'll post here if I get an egg or a crow out of any of these just as an update.

Almost 9 weeks old, but I know with silkies that's really early! Anyone want to take a wild guess? I plan on keeping at least one of the roos if I can get away with it, although I'll keep as many as I can get away with since they're so adorable.

If they are ALL boys I guess I'll be hatching more eggs next year!

1. Black silkie #1:

2. Black silkie #2 - this one was HARD to get a pic of! s/he will not sit still!:

3. Partridge showgirl:

4. White Silkie

5. Splash? Silkie - this one is the biggest and most agressive, so I am thinking roo here.

6. Black Silkie #3

Oh My! They all look like roos to me, except the white one... HOPEFULLY, I'M WRONG!!!

 

[Bat Cave Silkies]

uhmm... I think they're all roo's too, except the white

The showgirl appears to have a single comb also...

 

[JenEric Farms]

Yeah, I noticed the single comb too...

Hopefully we suck at guessing this early!

I have to agree, all roo's except the white one.
The naked neck is just toooo cute

, I laughed out loud when I saw that one, you can send him to me if you dont want him!

 

[featherz]

Hahahahahha ! Well it's ok, we shall see in a month or two.. or threee.

If they are all roos, I'll keep the showgirl and rehome the rest!

I have a ton of other roos to rehome from my non silkie hatch too, but waiting until they are six weeks to post those for your guesses. Some are so obvious I won't bother (the ones with huge red combs at three weeks.. doh!).

I sold half this hatch because I had too many - just my luck I kept all the roos!

And yes, the showgirl has a single comb. Not sure how that happened, but I wasn't even expecting to get a showgirl so it's all a surprise to me!

 

[Firearia]

Er... I kinda think they're all roos except for the white one as well. Well, they are pretty!

Actually, I missed one. not sure why, but I have one more grey colored silkie that I didn't get a shot of - poor thing, forgotten. LOL Based on your comments, that one may be female as s/he has the rounder head poof like the white one and no comb to speak of. So I may have five males and two females. We'll see in a few more months, I guess!
