That houkie I so cool looking! Looks like it got a bit of mottling in the crest!

 

[Chrystal Dawn]

Thanks! She's very petite and quiet. So lovey, too. I think she'll get more mottling as she grows up. Her mom got most of her mottling when she was around a year old.

That's what I've heard as well. Each molt gets more white

 

[Chrystal Dawn]

I'll update if she does!

can you guys help me identify my cochin crosses genders please?

The top pic looks like a hen and the bottom 2 are roosters. That's my best guess, but it depends on their age!

They're 2 months

They are the same age as my silkie crosses. If their father was the silkie then the hen babies will have black skin, and if their mom had light skin then the rooster babies will have light skin! Or vise versa. Daughters take after dad and sins after mom. Dot get rid of any Roos yet because you never know for sure with these silkie crosses until they crow!!
