So I've got three older chicks I picked up at Ohio Nationals from a breeder, and while the oldest was sold as a pullet, the other two were sold unsexed. Anyone care to take a stab at it for funsies? Prizes involve warm fuzzy feelings, and happy dances!

Chick 1, sold as pullet. Hatched 8.29.

Chick 2, unsexed. Hatched 9.10.

Edited to add that I have my own opinions on all three, but I don't want to post them and risk biasing the hive mind.

Silkies 1-2 are pullets.
Silkie #3, is a Cockerel, his crest is more sqaured, & I see streamers coming in.
