What breed and gender is my chick?

The boys tend to be bold and inquisitive.. stand taller and be more assertive. Girls tend to be shy and keep to themselves. My girl acted like a 'fussy opinionated grandma' and was very dainty. Silkies are weird in general as they tend to act more like aliens pretending to be chickens than actual chickens as well.

I only had one silkie (for a short period of time) that I rescued, and he sure didn't act like that. AHHH I'm getting silkie eggs soon, so I'm so excited! I can't wait to have granny alien birds XD
