We heard crowing - Which one is the Rooster?

[Sweet_Chickies1018]

We bought 2 Silkies back in February. They were straight run chicks. We were hoping for hens, but we were woken up today by crowing.

I'm thinking the black Silkie is the Rooster. Hoping the Partridge Silkie is a hen, at least. We only keep hens.

Just checking here for anyone's input on the sex of these pretty, 4 month old chicks.

Thanks!

Looks like the black one is a boy to me.

If they are all the same age, then I'm going to say that the Partridge is a girl.

I am not good with silkies but I would say the black one

Yup, the Black is the cockerel.

Agreed, Black cockerel and Partridge pullet.
