Silkies and Polish Take 3!

[LulusLayers]

Ok, it's been several weeks and I tried to get some clearer pictures of my "mystery chicks."

Let's see if we can finally pin down gender?

The two silver laced polishes are for sure hens. And for the silkies... the first one looks like a mix so i'm not sure, and the black one looks a bit roo-ish but i dont see a large comb forming yet so it could go either way...

How do you tell on the Polish? All I can tell is that nobody is showing comb or wattles.

Its all in the crest if it was a male you would be able to see his comb/ eyes because polish rooster combs are more V shaped and fall off to the side more then your polish hens crest. Heres a Silver laced polish rooster, Its very clear that your polishes are hens.

NOTE: I do not own this chicken or picture, This is just an example

Really easy. Roosters head feathers are very pointed at the end, hens more rounded. Plus the males tend to have a bigger, more wild looking hairdo.

Any confirmation on the silkies?

Both Silkies look like pullets to me.

I like to see silkies facing front with crest held back, to show full extent and shape of comb.
