Hey guys,
My friends brother has a 5 month old silky, and is fairly new to chickens and he wants to know its gender he was told it was a hen but he has 3 other layer hens that are about to start laying and doesn't want to risk getting fertilized eggs, unfortunately I only have layers and am not very experienced with silkies so I was wondering if you could help. I've attached a bunch of pictures that he's sent me. Let me know if you need a particular photo.
Thankyou :)
Hayley

Unfortunately, I agree, it's a Rooster. I'm new to Silkies but after all the reading on BYC, aside from the wattle & comb, the "feathering" on the top of the head....Pullets get a rounded puff while Cockerels have like streamers going back.
