Two Silkies, 4 months, help sexing?

Darn.... okay thank you! That’s what I was thinking. Now not sure what to do because I have a flock of 10 standard hens and a rooster, and they haven’t integrated and spend much of their time by themselves.

How about a rooster only coop?

They are very pretty boys, and if you're considering breeding, I'd keep them.

I really want to keep them! They’re my little fluffy butt babies. Finding Silkies where I am is challenging, and finding pullets would be even harder.

they are stunning birds!!!

the salt n pepper one is a silver partridge i believe.

Yes he is!! The other is a blue, and I lost one about 1 month ago that was a yellow with blue splash. They’re all stunning and came from a great breeder! I love them so much and want to keep them. I would also like to add some females if I can find them where I am. They have a lovely disposition and are very robust birds. Thank you for your compliment

Silkies are fab. I have a few myself!

Can you get some pullets, hatching eggs or chicks in the spring?

As long as they're not getting beat up or stirring up trouble, they should be okay in their current flock. Otherwise, you can start a rooster flock with the two of them. Rooster flocks are great.
