Male or female

[BuffManM]

Hi there,

This is one for any silkie experts, or really anybody who might have an idea.

I recently purchased 6 blue silkies (16 weeks old) and was wondering if anybody could advise me of the genders. I have posted the pictures and labelled them 1-6.

Also as it’s my first time keeping silkies I was wondering do they also look 16 weeks old? They look pretty small to me but could be wrong.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.Thankyou

They all look female to me, but head on pics of the comb would be really helpful.

I’ll try to get some clearer pictures of the heads tomorrow

Great! I'm not an expert on silkies, but I don't see any streamer feathers or anything that indicates male.

I’m in the same boat as you (females) but they are soooo hard to sex

All look like girls to me as well.
