This little cutie is a pullet in my opinion. Those do not look like streamers to me. Pullets can have irregular crests as well when younger.Can anyone help decide if this Silike is a male or female?

This is very typical for silkies! As you can see broad disagreement among forum members!We are just sumped snice it shows both female and male characteristics
Just look like normal Silkies.Hello, I've got ringnecks pheasants and silkies in the same coop. A couple months ago, some of the silkies eggs hatched. But the offspring doesn't look like normal silkies to me. Does anybody perhaps now if they are crossbreed between the silkies and ringnecks? I suspect they are crossbreed because the missing of a comb, the pattern of the feathers that is simular to the one from the ringnecks and because the 5th toe isn't fully developed. Thanks in advance!
I think it is a rooster, you can already see streamers coming out of his head.
I believe 7+ weeks.When do streamers come in, in your opinion? I think 2-6 months but everyone seems to think differently...
Mine were right in around the 12 week mark, after the first big juvenile molt.When do streamers come in, in your opinion? I think 2-6 months but everyone seems to think differently...
