Hello,
I have 5 silkie chickens, hatched may 26th so about 4 months old exactly. I’ve read a lot about how to try and sex them before egg laying or crowing, but still having trouble and second guessing myself.
These are the best pictures I could get of their faces on my own, and one was injured last night by a rooster so I’m unsure if it will be harder to tell. I had previously thought she (the injured one) was female.
If other/better pictures are needed I will try my best to get them.
Thanks in advance for any help!
****Oh, and they are only in these tiny areas for the next few hours while my husband closes them off a separate area from our other chickens since the attack last night. I promise we don’t keep them like this!!!
