[lisamarie]

hi all,
i have 3 silkies and am not sure if they are roosters or hens. could you please help? i have more photos if you need them. also, i can't tell my buff silkies apart but think i have photos here of both.

thanks!

I think your splash is a roo.... how old are they?

from the 2nd pic it looks like you got 1 bearded and 1 non bearded buff..... am I right..?

Hi its hard to tell for me,

so I waited until mine began to crow at about 4-5 months.

Looks like three roos to me. I say you have two buffs with smut (black leakage) and a splash.

i don't remember what i ordered! i thought it was 2 buffs and one blue? they are almost 5 months, but the problem is that i have another very dominant rooster that i believe is keeping any other roos i have quiet. if all 3 silkies are roos, i believe i have at least 6 roos in my flock of 30. anyway, not really interested in feeding that many roosters! so far no problems among them though. they are about 4 1/2 months old.

thanks,
lisa
