Silkie thread!

1&2 are pullets, 3 is your roo. The first pullet is partridge and the second blue with red leakage. The young white one is looking rooish and the youngsters are too young to sex.
The last one is blue and is looking like a roo too.

Is it normal for silkie roosters to try mounting the hens? Because I went outside this morning and he tried mounting one of the hens. They are all 3 months old.
 
Idk if that is normal for a silkie rooster but I have a EE rooster and he seems to know that when I introduce baby chickens in with them that they are to little for him to mount and he will not mount them until they are about to start laying.
 
Hen or rooster?

I'm pretty sure I know which are hens and roosters but I thought I'd ask for your opinions, too.

Yeah but he and all my hens are the same age. Although I will be introducing two new hens soonish. But he's very kind and I've never even seen him try to mount before this morning
 
his crest needs to be bigger before i can help :th


Not sure if this is a better shot ? I will say all 4 hens follow "it" around .. So I don't know if that means anything. Thank you for your input
