not sure, but they are sure cute! I think when it comes to silkies you have to wait for a crow or an egg to be for sure. but hey you are almost there, just give it a little more time
 
Supposedly, an experienced silkie person can tell most of the time by the size and shape of the comb and the feathers on the back of the head. They do eventually develop 'streamers' on the backs of their heads if they are male. However, I am far from being an experienced silkie person, but they sure are nice! Where did you get them?
 
B definitely looks like a pullet to me. A does too except that I noticed what looks like the start of streamers on the back of the head, so I have no idea, lol! Hopefully someone comes along with a bit more experince with silkies.
