Questionable Silkie.....UPDATE more pics

[Mrsfoote]

Heres the almost 22 weeker....felt its pelvic bones they are wider apart....obviously never laid an egg....

New feathers coming in my poor crusty little baby

A hairdo only a mother could love

Haha I love it

I think pullet based on the lack wattles? Not sure if thats the word i'm looking for the throat flap things anyway lol.

 

[Mrsfoote]

Lol that was what I was thinking too and because she has no walnut and at almost 22 weeks I would think some would appear just a little

 

[NoseyChickens]

I say pullet. But silkies are late bloomers. It will probably be another few weeks before you see any eggs.

 

[Mrsfoote]

WOO HOO anyone else?

 

[littlethorn]

It looks exactly like my silkie hen - no comb or wattles, so I say pullet too.

I think I see streamers in the crest so I am going to guess roo but that is a tricky one. My roos' comb didn't really develop or turn color until past the 6 month point, same he 1st crowed and the pullet laid he 1st egg. Let us know in a few weeks which it is

Looks like a typical hatchery quality pullet.

 

[Mrsfoote]

You have no idea how excited I am to hear this I don't care if she is crap quality.....lol I love her and to think I was going to rehome her.

Sundown a few weeks ago you dubbed her boy....lol all good I know how hard they can be to sex I'm so happy tho!

I see what your talking about but its so hard to get a good picture unless your looking directly at her there aren't any streamers they are the new feathers coming in really funky I've even laid flat on the floor and looked but they are all pretty uniform in length
