Numbers 2 and 4 look like roosters. Unsure about 1. He seems a bit too young to tell. The others look like pullets.

Try to get some shots of their combs and heads, please. That will help us sex them. Love the paint coloring!!! Paint is one of my favorite Silkie colors.

Are these any good?

I have 9 and it's looking like they're all cockerels except for one.

They're 12 1/2 weeks and two just started crowing Friday. My first chicks and I've got to rehome/sell nearly all of them...

I got them from a family friend who got them from a hatchery (not sure where).
