White Silkie

[MichyA]

Hi everyone! So I have 2 silkie chicks that I’ve posted on here before. One started crowing last week...so...it’s a boy! I’m still not sure about this one. I’ve posted it’s pic before and always get mixed guesses. Now that she/he is 16 weeks maybe some people could respond with more confidence? I’ll also post a pic from a few weeks ago.

White silkie is 16 weeks in the following collages... (except for the first one that says 13 weeks. I wanted to share so you can see how he/she’s changed in the last few weeks)

I vote boy. I think I see streamers in the pics with the blue background.

Thank you for the responses. I was hoping to breed the two.

Could you post pics of the other one? I'm not going to lie, this one looks positively like a female to me.

This one is the boy...

Enjoy his first crow LOL he sounds like a toy rubber chicken...

Here’s two more pics of the one I’m hoping is a girl. This pic was also taken after I trimmed around her eyes...and then blow dryer her so she’s (or he) is quite fluffy.

Here’s another video that may help. I trimmed around his/her eyes but the crest used to be even fuller.

This one looks like a pullet to me.
