It begins with post #4792 on page 480. First set of pics is Sam. Then there are 3 more--each post of one chick.
Thank you!

My silkie will be 15 weeks old on Monday (just an estimate as when I picked her up the hatchery said they were "around 7 weeks old" . I hope she is a girl but even if she is a Roo she is here to stay. She is more vocal than the rest and clucks so fingers crossed that she will give us some eggs Please forgive the picture overload, I wanted to give you the best possible advantage at being able to tell what sex she (or he) is

The final set of pics! This is Noni/Nona, who is the darkest of the chicks, looking blue (I hoe the color stays!) I really appreciate eveyone's time and possible gueestimates !

Leaning towards pullet

hello all! I have new pics of my 4 silkie chicks...hatched out by my silkie couple! I'm going to make one post per chick so as to avoid confusion.. These chicks are 7 weeks + 2 days old. First up is Sammie; Samuel if cockerel, Samantha if pullet. Thanks in advance.

My best guess would be a Samuel

Above is Zuzuz or Zuza. I'm posting 4 oics of Zu.

Leaning towards pullet

Pst # 2 is about chick #2...This is Lou, or Lula.

Hard to tell at the angle in these pics. Could you post a font pic of the comb and a full body pic?

thankyou for your input. I have been looking intently at her beak shape and I also think a pullet.

She is sooooo sweet and friendly I am now a big Silky fan

And of course I want to have more.

I've never posted in a forum before - my photos didn't come through. Ive put a couple more in this post
