I have these two and I feel like they are females by their temperment, Very quiet but they stand upright more than my other silkies. They are almost at the age to start laying eggs and was just Curious what everyone else thought about their genders.

I'm having the same issue. I had 8 eggs and 7 hatched perfectly by day 21...now on day 24 and the last egg appears to be developing but without any movement that I can notice.... They are all silky.
