[Sanna]

hey guys any ideas on the sex of this silkie right here












he/she is 12.5 weeks old and i have one rooster for sure and one for sure hen and this one is driving me nuts because i cant tell the sex

Looks like a pullet to me, but I'm not a 100% sure.

I don't remember if I posted this picture here already?? I just think it's funny. This chick cracks me up!

I gave my chicks a new food dish and they've FINALLY decided to eat out of the dish instead of spreading their food all over the darn place. Or maybe it's because the dish is a little bit deeper than the old ones so they can't kick the food around as much.
So, this is what this little chick did the first day I gave them their new dish. I guess eating is a lot of work. Or sleeping on their food is more comfortable... Who knows?? And now this little one does this every day!

Hello everyone! This is my pair of 6.5 week old white silkies... I suspect I have a pair or maybe two pullets..

Here are a few pictures of the two as a pair:
I think the one on the left is a pullet and the one on the right a cockerel

This looks like two girls and a boy to me.

Hens have much smaller comb and wattles.
