Nice looking bird. Silkies are sooo hard to sex, but may gut feeling is that you have a hen.

I have raised a few silkie roos and they have not looked like your at that age, so my guess.

Good Luck !!

No clue on sex. I don't have any silkies.

Well Guinea Goonie I hope you are right! I have found this bird sitting in the nesting box. I know too young to lay eggs, and there have been no eggs under her, but I know silkies are supposed to be pretty broody birds.

She already knows what to do. I don't really want to breed her as she is quite the odd bird, but wouldn't mind her hatching out eggs.

That is the neatest looking silkie mix!!!! I agree with your boys

MY GOODNESS

That is the TWIN of one of our Silkies, one of the infamous 4 Rascals, aptly named "That Guy"

We're not sure on his sex (of ours, not yours), but all indications so far point to roo. Of course, we could be wrong. Here's a pic of That Guy taken just three days ago, he's at about 12 weeks.

EDIT: looking again...there are some differences...guess I got excited! But the crests defenitely look similar to me.
