I am pretty sure Chandler is a girl.

Derpy is the biggest. I think it's a boy.

Clare I think is a boy too. It has a little bit of red growing in the hackles and crest.

Sentinel used to be the most friendly bird but has recently become standoffish. Except that she looks and acts more like a girl.

Runt is now the second largest bird. I'm thinking boy.
I have two silkies 12 weeks old. I need help. I think the darker one is female and the lighter one is a male. Help!

The darker one who I think is female is friendlier though but has no waddle or comb, it is also bigger than the male looking one. No eggs or crowing yet.
Interesting the black one was the only one I thought for sure was a pullet! It has the smallest comb and the most puffy, round crest on its head. What makes it suspicious?I think they are all pullets except for the black one it's kind of suspicious
Interesting the black one was the only one I thought for sure was a pullet! It has the smallest comb and the most puffy, round crest on its head. What makes it suspicious?
What about the brown one? It has a huge comb compared to the others and its crest swoops back. I thought for sure that one was a rooster!
Does it look like streamers coming in on the white one, or do you think it is new feathers coming in?
Any other thoughts?
I'm pretty sure the buff is a cockerel. The white could go either way, what I can see of the comb makes me think a cockerel for that one as well. I think the black looks like a pullet.
Please help sex my 2 eleven week old splash silkies.![]()
