Silkie mixes now 7 weeks plz any guesses?

[Sammi_0411]

Hey so im usually pretty good at sexing poultry but really struggling with mine. They are 7 weeks old silkie mixes (dad a silkie mum either a pekin/cochin or serama) i know they hard to sex but just wondered if anyone could plz hazard a guess? There is no development of comb at all (yes i know silkie mixes later to mature) il do them all singularly in each msg also apologies on pics they dont stop moving lol
Thanks in advance

Those combs are pretty small, you might just get lucky and have a bunch of little pullets there.

Being as they are so young I'm just guessing based on the combs (none have a very wide base and there isn't much development yet). They'll hopefully be old enough by 10-12 weeks to really get a more accurate idea. Cute babies by the way!

No problem! And you just never know, I always have the hardest time sexing when all the chicks happen to be pullets. It's easier when at least one is different so you have something to compare to.

I actually agree.
