Okay! Much debate.. Male or Female Silver Button!?

[Stellar]

The other male is a silver red breasted pearl (white on the nose tip). Lilly is different because she/he is a silver blue face. Two different varieties in the cbbq.

Just guess I shouldn't worry. If she lays she lays, if not, then I have 2 males to add to my genetics for breeding with any females I get from this hatch ^_^

Unfortunately the silver blue faces usually don't have bibs for either gender. THe pink feathers are your indicators if male. Some males won't have the indicator feathers. You most likely have a hen, she is just getting used to her new environment.

Well if she is indeed a she then AWESOME!!! Because she is beautiful! But if not, then not the end of the world, because I have eggcelent layers right now who will add to the bloodline.

She looks like a girl to me too. I think QuailLady is right and she is just adjusting to the new house.

 

[jfulcher]

That is what I am hoping.

The OP's bird is a silver blueface, that's why there is no bib.
