My two Silkies here Pixel and Mischief need to be sexed! Anyone have any idea? They are 8 weeks old, Pixel is SO much bigger then Mischief, yet Pixel is the gentle one, Mischief is the biggest bully and had to be put in isolation.

Mischief:

 
Silkies are very difficult to sex before 4-5 mos. of age , by their own breeders. Sometimes not till they lay or crow. This is so very early for your birds - all I see at this point
are male-ish combs and crests.
 
I'm leaning toward cockerels for both at this point, but Drumstick diva is correct; young Silkies are notoriously difficult to sex, even for experienced chicken owners. I would suggest re-posting their pics in another month. Hopefully by then we can be much more certain of their gender.
