Hey guys 5 months ago (on the 17th of May to be exact.) I adopted 7 chicks. I have been abel to find out most of their breeds by now but one of them I just can't quite figure out. A couple weeks ago I noticed some fluff at the top of her tail. This little patch has been growing since then. Is she a silkie? I just want to know. Also her personality is the personality of a silkie. She isn't afraid of humans and has extra toes. Here's a picture of her. image.jpeg
 
Hello! I do see a walnut comb there, that and the extra toes could indicate that it has some silkie in it's breeding. I think it is part silkie. It kind of looks like a rooster to me....Are you sure it's a hen? I think that little bit of fluff you're seeing is just where the feathers part, just at the base of the tail, showing the downy underside. The larger comb and saddle feathers make me think male......
 
Haha yay that makes me really happy! I assumed it was a female because it's 5 and a half months old and it still isn't crowing I'm guessing that's just the breed? Also it's surprising that a male is so close to me! Whenever I go in the coop he will wadel over to me and will not mind eating out of my hand and let me pet him. Non of the roosters I've ever had have been this way! I can't wait to the gender! Thanks for all the help guys this probably saved my butt.
