Silkie sexting part 2

[AM10]

Hello again,
My silkies are now all 8 weeks and older so I was hoping I could get some help with gender guesses. I’m thinking I have three cockerels and one hen. The littlest is the one I’m 50/50 on. I’ll be attaching all the pictures I can so if anyone can be of assistance that would be grand.
Best,
AM.

Can you number each bird? Hard to tell how many there are. Sounds like you have 4 based on your post, but I see more. Also specify age on each individual bird, it makes a difference. Thanks!
First white one is definitely male. Last photo, silver partridge one is as well, depending on age.

Pippin's easy guide to silkie sexing

Hello there! When I hatched my own silkies, I studied and studied about how to sex them. I read that it was almost impossible to sex them, and that you had to wait for a crow or an egg. Raising and watching them helped me pick out certain traits that only belong to roosters or hens. These...

Of course.
I have five:
1. White with no head fluff is about 10 weeks
2. White and brown is also ten weeks
3. Gray and black is about 11 weeks
4. Gray and white is 8 weeks old
5. Black one is about 9 weeks old.

Some of these are a little complicated and could use some close up photos of the comb. But I’ll mentioned which ones below.

white one- cockerel (large wide walnut comb )

Black one - pullet (this one it would be helpful to have a close up of the comb, with the crest pulled back exposing it better).

blue/white silver- not sure of the color lol. Looks like a possible pullet. But really could benefit for a close of photo of that comb to help.

white/splash- looks like a cockerel, the color and and comb looks a little wide. I will admit this one has me 50/50. Because I’ve never seen this color. However the comb is also not to protruding .

Gray/black- the one that’s single combed, is likely a cockerel.

please keep in mind at 12 weeks the traits may change and we could be better at evaluating than. At this stage, it’s still a bit to early and the combs can change and other attributed traits.
