Silkie Sex?

[AlexMalfoy]

This is Rain. I need to know what gender (s)he is; I'm not allowed to keep any roos . I am guessing (s)he's about five weeks old in these pictures. (S)he isn't very social, and is at the bottom of the pecking order in my flock. Any ideas?

It's too young. Post pics of the comb, crest, and saddle at 12 weeks. Silkies are slow developing.

Yes definately too young to tell.

Very slow sexing almost does it crow or did lay an egg slow

Agree Impossible to say at this age with a silkie but keep an eye on that comb in the next couple of weeks (watch for it growing significantly) . Sometimes silkie cockerels show up earlier than expected. Cute little fuzz ball though.

It does not crow or lay yet. I guess I'll just keep my fingers crossed for a pullet
