Six month old Silkies. Gender??

Chick #4 the one I’m not totally sure if name is “little blue” or “little BOY blue.”View attachment 1167613View attachment 1167614

Looks like a male. The comb gives it away. Ours looks the same and he has been crowing for a while. He's about 7 months old now.

All hens.

I’ve never personally heard but my dad said little blue tried to crow, idk.

If they’re all hens I got lucky again. I mean I got lucky even if it’s just the three are hens because they were straight run. I bought four straight run silkies before and got all hens too. I’m SO lucky

Little blue is male

They all look like hens to me, but Silkies can really keep you guessing. At 6 months old you should be able to see "streamers" in their crests.

Ok so I’m pretty certain now that I have all girls. One is broody and I’ve been getting 3-4 eggs, plus all are submissive and have been seen on nests. Thanks everyone for the help!
