I only took pics of there combs and one is a single comb silkie (yes he has 5 toes and feathers on his feat, hes a silkie) their all 3 days old (except for the last one who is 2).

heres the single comb. I think hes a roo:

I don't know about this one compared to the others, I'd say hes a roo too:

and the 2 day old:

does anyone know what sex they are based on their combs?

you have any ideas silkie?

 

[silkiecuddles]

so can you answer my question?

I can't usually sex my chicks at that age. Good rooster signs on silkies would be big comb, streamers in tail, slicked back crest, and more outgoing personality

 

[TheLukeMeister]

outgoing persoality?

Here's a collage of Captain Crestworth. Look at his comb and tail feathers. He's about 2-3 months old. Shan named him

Yeah, pretty sure they just have singles. Their combs are walnut combs, and they should be purple/blue
