Our silkie is 14 weeks and we are unsure if she is a hen. She is our first silkie and I just adore her. I have been researching hen vs roosters but would love some opinions from people who have silkies. Thank you for your help.

I think I'd have to say... Male? Those comb and wattles are pretty big for a 3, 1/2 month old.

Keep your eye on that one. 😉
