What sex are these

[heyeddah]

Can anyone guess the sex of these three 2 month old silkies?
Should I wait a couple more months for more definitive photos?
Thanks.
The kids want to know.... Yeah right, the kids!

A few more photos.

Silkies are really hard to tell this early, unless they start crowing.

My youngest started crowing at 11 weeks, but in some cases it has been 4 months before I could start to tell what the sex was.

Ok Thanks .
I thought that was going to be the case.
Iwanted to be prepared for the nosy neighbors.

At this age I have no problem telling them when I see them in Person, but with pictures it is so much more difficult.

Im going to make a guess. The lighter color one looks like a roo, and the one in the largest picture looks like a pullet. the other I cant tell.

I think you have two roos and a pullet. The Light Blue one is definitely a roo. The Black one with the large well rounded crest is a pullet. The other Black one with the small pointy crest I believe to be a male also.

Thanks,
That confoirms what I was thinking based on their behaviors and close ups. I appreciate everyone having a say. We were thinking roo on the light one too.

if it doesn't crow, can you see after 5 months if it is a rooster? aviator pic is with my DD silkie. Anybody know if it is a he?
