I got my very first day old silkie chick on May 28. I have a feel it's a rooster not a pullet. The breeder told me in June that lil bit ( that's the silkies name) was a pullet. She vent sexed. I also got a " pullet" white crested polish when I got my silkie. The polish was not a pullet it was a rooster he started crowing becoming agressive towards me and The polish tail feathers look like a roosters as well as his crest she also vent sexed The polish lol . The picture are very recent like from the morning

I'm curious. I READ silkie pullets grow tail feathers quicker than roos.All 3 of my 3 week old chicks have rather large tail feathering.Eager to see if they are all pullets.
