Hi!

I've recently acquired (what I believe to be) this little guy. I received two silkie frizzles not that long ago, hatched at the same time. This one is larger in size, and definitely has a much larger comb than the other. Behaviorally, more aggressive and protective than the other hens in my flock. However, there hasn't been any crowing. In fact, both he and his hatch mate are barely vocal. Just for fun - threw in two pictures of his showgirl hatch mate :)

What do we think?!

Thank you!

He looks like a boy to me. Big comb, plus shoulder patches are what I am judging by. They crow in their own good time, sometimes much later than this. The showgirl looks good for a pullet.
