Probably not my future broody :(

I'm hoping someone here will tell me there is still a chance that my silkie could be a girl. I know.. probably not, but just checking before I try to sell it.

So what do y'all think?

compare yours to this hen. They look the same, I think your is a hen.

Really? I thought that the streamers on the head meant roo? If it's a girl that would be awesome, since the only reason I got the silkies were to be broody hens. One died, so this is the only one I have left. I really, really want to get rid of the incubator.

I have no idea how to tell the sex of silkies except a walnut comb. So he might be a young roo, and I know what you mean by getting silkies to brood. My friend has silkies, cochins, and silkie/EE crosses to hatch for him.

It's hard to tell from the pics, but it does look like it has streamers which is def. a boy thing. And it's got a bit of wattle going on there.
