Hello all! My husband and I are new chicken owners at 23. I've been raising reptiles and cats, while helping my mom with her flock of 2(1y) roos and 4 hens(4y). I have 2 16 week old silkie frizzle mix pullets. Tsunade and Kanna. My first chickies. And I recently acquired 4 now 8 week old polish...

Hello, I have 2 silkies and 2 polish crested and I’m having a hard time sexing the polish crested because their hair is starting to look different. Any guesses?
