Hey guys! Wondering what gender these 3 are.
They're all bantams, Silkie, Red Laced White Cornish, and Black OEGB. They're about 8 weeks old.

Should I assume I'm waiting for saddle feathers to come in? Thats about 10-12 weeks right?
I think that’s when. I just got my first cockerels so I’m not experienced with this.

(Well I had a Ayam Cemani cockerel until he was about 14 weeks and he had just started getting saddle feathers around 13-14 weeks)

So I guess 12-15 weeks is when you should start seeing them, but this is a guess. Good luck! :)
 
Pullets and hens will do that sometimes. If she still looks like a pullet, she probably is one.

(Of course you could post newer photos, and get other opinions on whether "she" still looks like a pullet.)
Nothing about her says rooster. She looks exactly like she did in the original photos, but leggier. I assumed she was just being bossy lol!
I'm starting to assume that Cotton is a he. His attitude says it, but I'll post more photos in another week. I believe 12 weeks was the suggested update time.
