4 weeks old ? Any idea of sex???
Probably too young but thought maybe someone is really good at it.

Hens my guess, but its hard to tell with silkies.

Way too early. Silkies are extremely difficult to sex before 4-5 mos. and sometimes not even till they lay or crow. This one is showing a lot of comb for it's age, so I have my reservations . But things could change a lot in the next several weeks. Is this a hatchery silkie?

Agreed.

I've had silkies for YEARS and I'm almost positive that that is a hen. The combs usually come pretty early, and although difficult to sex, it's very unlikely that your chicken is a roo.

Well. I’m curious after reading if you have any update. Cockerel or hen?
