Silkie Gender

[cmaixa1303]

Hi everyone. I have 3 Silkies. I know Silkies can be hard to sex but wanted to see if anyone out there with Silkie experience can give me a guess? The breeder says she thinks all girls. I'm hoping... Raven is the black, possible dwarf Silkie, & is 19 weeks old. Snow White is my white Silkie & is 17 weeks old. Chip is my partridge & is 15 weeks old. I'm a little worried about Chip as she is huge compared to my other 2. Most of the pics were taken back in Aug so a few weeks back.

Aww, they are so cute! I don't see anything that screams roo yet. Maybe they are girls.

The partridge is a cockerel, and the white one looks like a pullet.

Silkie Roos are the sweetest.

Yes I know but unfortunately I’m not allowed roosters in my neighborhood. But when I purchased my Silkies, I purchased from a breeder who will take back any boys so if Chip does turn out to be a boy, I know he’ll go back to a good home.

I don't see a black silkie in your pics. I'm thinking that partridge is a cockerel too. White looks like a pullet.

Oh gosh I just realized the picture with Raven didn't attach. Attaching it now so you all can see her.

I'm not sure with raven but leaning pullet. Such a little bird. Very cute!
