Hello everyone..!
I am very new to silkie chickens..
I am sure the the gray silkie (Ghost) is a rooster.. he is crowing.. the browns (Cinnamon and Nutmeg) and the grey came from the same clutch and same age 6 months old, the white Elvis is only 5 months.. And Elvis is from a totally different breeder..
what is your opinion on if they are male or female...
My guess is Cinnamon and Nutmeg are females and Elvis is a male... ?
thank you all,
Holly

Hard to tell from your photos. Best if you post each bird individually, side view in profile (like my avatar) and head on view showing any comb. As close up photos as you can get.
They look like beautiful birds, the partridges are likely female from what I can see, but better photos would help. :)

X2 and the greyish one is definitely male.

Yep I agree with you - Cinnamon and Nutmeg are pullets and Elvis is a cockerel and of course Ghost is a cockerel. Clear close up pics would help clarify though. Beautiful Silkies :love
