Hey I’m new to silkies and hoping someone could help me with these 4 little ones. At the moment I think they may all be roos 🫣🫣🫣

I think chick 3 (photos 5 and 6) are my only hope at a hen.

Oh heavens, they are so cute!

Silkies can't usually be sexed until they are at least 3 months old, but in my experience over the years, it's more like 4 or 5 months old.

I have several hens with combs like this one, so don't lose hope, yet, although, that said above, I sure lean cockerel.
