Sexing silkies......?

[k625]

My silkies are 4 weeks old, and im almost posative 1 is a girl, and the other three are up for debate. The breeder thought 1 was a boy, but there are 3 that are "heavy" so I hope there is only 1 boy. If not im gonna have to swap them out lol. I will try to get some pics and attach so everyone can see them.

Alrighty here is the herd, yet another week older. I am almost positive about the buff one being a girl. She is so tiny, and so dainty. The other 3 is a big ?. I am also attaching the box im going to use to keep them in, inside their run/coop thing at night. I have drilled about 20 or so small holes on either side, how much ventilation do you think I need. Im in Fl and its sweltering still!

OK....First i want to thank Y'ALL for the pictures. They were all helpful and great to look at. Now....airheart...those were all 7 and 8 weeks old? If thats so.....There is a very very good chance that i have all girls. I promise to not get my heart set on that.......but i went out today and looked real good and there was not even the slightest sign of waddles or a comb starting. They looked just like your 'girls'

NOW....I just backordered the first year of backyard poultry and got it all this week. There is one with a buff silkie on the cover and that is a girl. She has pretty big waddles. So i think you are probably right about the girls, but i would still give it more time before you go giving the boys away. Too bad you were not closer to me. I might end up wanting a roo if i dont have one. I would like to know for sure what they are NOW.......but i feel like i have a better idea now. I think we need to be patient still. I think sometimes it takes a while to be sure. This has been great to get to see all these pics.......thanks again
