    Silkie hens or Roos

    Hi! New Silkie owner and I’ve read it’s very difficult to sex. I have 6 chicks that are 6 weeks old. I’m really hoping some are hens? Any input would be great!!

    10 week old Silkie sexing

    Hi all! First time urban chicken owner here. I am not allowed to keep roosters so if anyone has any thoughts on whether my chickies are roos or pullets I would be so grateful! I know silkies are notoriously tricky to sex, but just getting an idea will be super helpful. :) I raised them since...

    Sexing 14week old silkie chicks

    I have 5 chicks and I wanted some opinions on what sex they are. I know for sure that the 5th is a roo and I think that their all roos but I'm not 100% sure about everyone. The first 2 pics are the parents and the rest are the chicks, I put numbers in the photos so that their easier to refer to.

    Sexing baby silkies

    Thoughts on my baby silkie? I think this one is a roo! 5 weeks old so can't fully tell but just ideas! He jumps with the other ones and pushes around the girls sometimes.

    Sexing Silkies

    Hi everybody! When I first got my silkie chicks I searched for everything about them, especially about sexing them, as I had heard that silkies are very hard to sex. Surprisingly, once I tried it, it didn't seem that hard. Searching around, I found that there are no articles on how to sex...

    Silkie Frizzle Chick Genders

    Hi - To anyone that has knowledge and enjoys giving educated opinions, I would love to know what gender you would say each of these chicks are. Please don't tell me they are too young to sex correctly, as that is not a helpful reply, and I understand that at 6 weeks, this is not guaranteed to be...
