Pullet or Cockerels!?

[MEGTHEGREER]

I have 2 13 week old silkies that are making a scratchy sound...they have definitely been submissive to the bigger flock leaders, but I can't tell if they are boy or girls. Any thoughts!?

Your little frizzle cochin looks to be a boy but the silkies in question I'm not sure :'( can you take photos of their combs? Im suspicious of the partridge one

I seriously hope not they are my favorites! I will snag a photo of their combs shortly and upload. Back home in 30 minutes. They are making an identical noise that was lower than I expected... I live in an area cockerels aren't allowed, but thankfully surrounded by farms in the region!

The Cochin is a cockerel. So far the Silkies look like pullets. I'm not great with Silkies however.

@Matilda Belle what do you think?

Not gonna lie that's the most pullet like comb I've seen on silkies on BYC in probably a month haha! I can't say for sure, but probably pullets? Good luck and fingers crossed for you!

That is such great news!!! I have 6 sweeties and have genuinely been concerned over half of them are males. The silkies are my babies though. I also have a gorgeous polish gal! So thankful, I appreciate your help and am hoping for the best!
