At five months she is almost old enough to lay eggs. I believe, if a rooster, there would be little doubt by now. While the crest doesn't look right, everything else is hen. I assume there is no crowing. My silkie roosters were well developed by five months.
They look great! And yes this is what worries me about mine. A males crest but a females body...
Crests vary in size and shape. Mocha's crest is different, but a hen she is.They look great! And yes this is what worries me about mine. A males crest but a females body...
