Silkie hen or roo and is it normal to be so small

[Halfwolf27]

I took in a Silkie from a neighbor i got it June 21st but it doesn’t look as if it’s growing any and I was wondering how to tell a silkies gender it has made a sound a couple times as if I thought it could be a rooster but then I’m not sure any ideas and will it get any bigger ? Seems as if my chicken flock doesn’t like it as well it’s very sweet but my hens pick on him/her so I have to keep them away I raised it with two baby Wyandotte’s but the Wyandotte’s are already bigger then the Silkie they are 7 weeks old and they prefer to stick together then be around the Silkie as well

Male is my guess bc of the large comb.

That’s what I’m wondering ! I believe it is but it’s very sweet as of right now and try’s to climb on me when it was trying to hide from the other ones ! But it’s so small ! Fits in my hands

Males are usually more friendlier than females.

Makes me wonder if my upright standing, super friendly and cuddly silkie chick is a roo...

Need the age on this one.
Yep, he's a cockerel.
Looks normal size Silkie. Silkies aren't exactly the giants of the chicken world.

You shouldn't let him do that. Him doing that is showing he has no fear of you. What I do is put a hand to my hip and let him roost there (Also I don't like getting pooped on,).
