#3 she is much slower getting her poof than the others, she also had a bad case of pastey butt when i got her and has always been the smallest..

#4 she always gives me the best chicken poses for pictures

#5

Adorable!!

The only one i can (maybe) make out is number 2.

I would say boy because of how his comb and waddles are developing. That really isn't a good way to tell though because those silkies can trick you!


Very cute!

Hello, silkies are sooo hard to sex. My guess would be #2 and #4 are boys. I am just going by waddle development.
They are going to be gorgeous when they grow up!

#2 is the only one that I would label for sure a boy. Way too red of comb and waddles for a girl.
