The Side-Eyed Sisters

[ChickenRush]

Everyone meet my Silkies, Sally and Shirley. I swear most pictures I get of them offer an on point side eye game. They look and act like mob bosses so we named them appropriately.

I sure hope they’re girls which is the reason for my post. They’re currently 14 weeks old and I feel like I change my mind daily on what sex they are. Please help.

Hello and welcome to BYC!

What cutie pies you have there! I do not know the genders but these 2 members might...

Welcome to BYC!

Your light colored silkie is a cockerel. I'm slightly on the fence on the black, I want to say it is also a cockerel. Can you provide full body photos from the top and side?

Cutie pies either way!

Yes the light-colored one is without a doubt male. Also on the fence about the dark one, but the comb size makes me lean towards cockerel as well.

Thanks for the info. I was afraid that was the case.

I'm still thinking cockerel

It’s their combs that seem to be sealing the deal for me. They’re both rather large. Here’s Shirley… just because “she’s” so beautiful.
