So I got this little frizzle about 5 weeks ago, they're now about 8 weeks old. They started to develop a bit of a comb and wattle around 6-7 weeks. Its still quite pink (not red) and doesn't seem to have gotten any bigger since then. They haven't started crowing but I'm a little worried they might be a rooster and I can't keep them where I live. Rehoming isn't an issue but I have become pretty attached. They seem to have become quite friendly with one of my other chickens (a 14 week old I'm certain is a hen) so I'm hoping they're a girl. If anyone has advice on sexing it would be much appreciated.

So its been about two weeks now. I'm leaning more towards them being a girl at this point. They do get quite an aggressive blush when they're running around, its almost watermelon red, but once they calm down it goes back to being pink. The first picture is her coming off a blush (its hard to get a good pic when she's flustered), and the second and third are what she looks like when she's calmed down. I also threw in a full body pic just so you can see her and if anyone can ID better with feather growth (although I know its hard with frizzles. She's the littler one in front behind her is my other frizzle lady.

Oki believe those are part silkies. And I know my full silkies u can't sex them until either u get a egg or or crows. That chicken looks really cool. Kinda silkie and feathery at the same time. That little one in the last pic looks like its cockie . Its beautiful units own way.
