silkie, boy or girl?

Originally we thought little Sunjay was a girl, then we thought boy, now we have no clue... What do you think? Thanks!

Could you post a posture picture? That play a huge factor in sexing Silkies.

Its hard to tell to me too, I see some red in the comb and wattles....but its not big and bright yet. It could change I would just really keep an eye on how it matures and grows more. Ive never had silkies (yet

) so I'm not expert! But pullet or roo either way he/she is adorable!

Thanks! Yep, that's definitely a cockerel. They have a more upright posture than pullets, and the streamers on the head also give it away.

Sunday is a cockerel because he has streamers coming out of his crest and pink comb and wattles which even adult Silkie hens never have.
