OK, these 2 little silkies of mine are exactly 6 weeks old now. I took some good close up and side pics (I hope) so the folks knowing their silkies could maybe give me an idea of what they think please.

1) First there is Laural. She has a black beak, comb & black eyes. She is the submissive one.
2)Hardy has the light beak and lighter toes, pink comb. Acts like a boy I think.

But......because silkies are so darn hard to sex I am looking for opinions please.
Thanks for all yopur help.

well they are beautiful. i think that laurel is a little pullet and hardy is a little cockeral. very pretty. i like the third pic the best.
 
luarel is a hen roosters usually wont get that big of a top knot at that age but hardy is defently a rooster usually if they have a walnut comb and its red most likely it is a rooster
 
the 1st one is a female and the second one is definatly a male. You have a pair. Looks like you could get some nice you out of the when they are older wthi some work.
