I have a 5 week old beard less silkie that's already developing some waddles. Does that mean he's a boy?

Hi! A little over 4 weeks I believe. Puffs up and bumps into my hand everytime I put it in brooder so we're thinking boy. Thanks!

Hey Guys.. So these precious chickies are about 6 weeks old now.. According to what I was told they were born On March 6.. Not 100% sure thats accurate but let me know if you think they are Hens or Roos

Please tell me this is a pullet? I got her from a friend a couple months ago and have no clue how old she is. Also, what color is she considered?

Numbers 1, 4, and 5 are pullets. The others look mighty suspicious.

Any idea of gender for this 6 wk old silkie?



We kept the one with the smallest (narrow) comb.
Is there a way to tell by crest shape or stance?
What do I look for?

Can you tell me what sex are my silkies. My family really needs to know.

I have 6, 5 week old white Silkie Bantams. They came from my local TSC, 2 of them are larger overall with bigger feet. A few have larger combs and some have smooth heads (prolly from being poor quality from a hatchery). Here they all are. Anyone have any thoughts at this point?

Chick 1 and chick 5 are the largest. Chick 2 and 3 do not have the head poof. Chick 1 has very few leg feathers. Chick 5 dosnt have any leg feathers at all.

I would love to know that I have at least 1 pullet or 1 cockerel in the batch.
