Silkie genders?

[Sydnee Fisher]

I posted a while back of my two silkie chicks and you said 8 weeks was the earliest to tell so I not really sure if they are guitar 8 weeks since I didn’t mark the day but here are some pictures of them! All help is appreciated!(sorry about the bad pictures can get more tomorrow)

??? No idea , I have two black ones that the breeder called a bonded pair , I assumed that means they had done the deed?? A month later they both layed an egg ... it was a miracle for sure . Silkies are very hard to sex , just wait if you don’t want a rooster, don’t get silkies

Good luck I hope you get what you want

They were hatched by a broody so I read they are most likely to be roosters cause of the temperature...

It's hard to see the actual size of the comb on the bird in the first pic, but the second one has a lot of comb for 8 weeks. Could well be a roo.
