Male or Female?

I have this beautiful silkie baby who is about 5 or 6 months old and I'm not sure if it's a boy or a girl. I have heard multiple things. Any one else have any clue? I don't want to get rid of her/him if I don't have to.

It's comb is still kind of flat and not very big.

Can we get a profile shot of the bird standing naturally?

Thanks! I'm leaning towards pullet, but silkies can be so tricky. At this age you should be getting eggs or crowing soon, to confirm either way. Sending egg thoughts!

My silkies have much bigger combs and still turned out to be pullets. Here are a few pics.

Thank you! I really hope. It's hard to tell if "she" is laying because I also have four polish mixes, I believe they are, that are laying so I can't really tell. They lay little eggs too.
