What’s your best guess on this 5-wk-old silkie?

Hello! Today I woke up absurdly early and while I was in the kitchen, I heard a strange screechy call from the brooder. I ran and caught my 5-week-old silkie do it one more time before he got camera shy before I could grab my phone for a video. The sound wasn’t quite how I imagined a rooster crow, but it definitely could be. What do you think?

My best guess is that yes indeed he is a cockerel.

 

[JedJackson]

Yep. Cockerel.

 

[Pigeony]

Yeah he's a cockerel

 

[Egg Snatcher]

Agree

Thank you all!

If anyone in the DC area wants a white Silkie rooster, I'll be posting him in the VA and rehoming threads
