Sexing silkies

[JetBlackJo]

We were pretty sure that the blue and white leg ringed Silkies were boys, so we took them back to the place we got them - one had just started crowing and the other one looked almost identical wrt the crests. The one with the pink leg ring we kept as her head feathers were entirely different - an even top knot/affro style! She is now called Pixie.

5 week old splash. Any idea male or female? We can't have roo's in our city limits, so I am hoping female so I can go pick her up from the breeder this week!
Thanks for your help!

I have a white Silkie chick. She is about 6 or 7 weeks old. Well I hope it's a she. Lol her name is Mrs. Fluffy Bottom or Fluff for short. Hopefully it won't have to change to Mr. I really would like to know if she is a she or if she is a he? Help!

Do you have a picture? Even then, it is very young to be sure. Good luck, though!
