Well at that age I'm saying pullet. Even a bearded rooster would have wattles of some size and I don't see any. I have a silkie just like this except mine's 2 months old and mine's wattles are much bigger than your Silkie's wattles. I don't see any streamers either. I'm going with pullet.

Is this Blue looking like a roo? It's 5 weeks old here. I'm guessing roo but I'm new to chickens all together so idk. Love to hear everyone's opinion!

Dont lose hope. Its gonna look pretty funny for a few weeks (awkward teenage time) but will look lovely again!
 
This is my beautiful Penelope. We bought 6 "female chicks" 4 months ago. So far 2 are roos and now Pen is "crowing". Her waddle and comb is so different than my other silkie roo I thought she was a she. What do you think?
