Splash Silkie Chick?

[Gladysandfriends]

Hey all! I have a 6 week silkie chick that I was told was a splash. (S)he has remained the same colour since I got him/her at 3 days old. When do silkie chicks start to show their splash colour? Any thoughts on gender? I know it’s still young and 50/50 at this point, but wanted to see others opinions. Thanks!

Usually around 6 weeks or so their true colors start coming in. It appears yours is starting to a bit. Very cute!

The one in my avatar was white as a chick.

I only guess at sexes if they are younger than 4-5 months and half the time I'm right.

Lol! 50% chance of getting it right

Thanks, good to know about the colour! Interested to see how (s)he matures and watch her/his colour come in. Thanks for your help!
