Partridge Silkie Genders? 13-ish months

[malika621]

So I have 3 chickens that I got yesterday. One crowed this moring. I think it was Ginger. What do you think? Male and female ratio? They were born late April, so they should be about 13 months there or about. I know it wont be exact, but my guess is 2 hens and 1 rooster. Partridge is easier to tell between the two genders... So what do you think? Thank you ahead of time

They all look like pullets to me, are you sure one of them crowed?

Oh yeah, im sure lol. I was standing in the coop with my other rooster crowing and I heard it. It was awful. definitely a crow though. I didnt see which one it was. And my other chicks were not over there. One if thise has to be a rooster!

Sometimes older hens will crow when there isn't a rooster with them

Woah thats weird lol. So they could all be females? I thought they looked like pullets but I wasnt so sure this morning when one of them did that.

They could be, especially if the crowing sounds horrible. The girls always sound like dying animals

Partridge males have near solid black chests, and dark red on the shoulders. None of them have those features. It could be a dominant hen crowing.

Oh haha well thank you both! I guess that explains why my lead hen before and the smallest one of those new ones above used to go at it all the time. I guess it could have been Parsley then who crowed. Thank you, guys, for clarifying that. I thought only roosters crowed!
