Silkie genders.

Hi Everyone, I have some 18 week old silkies (blue) and was wondering should I be able to blatantly tell pullets from Roos yet? I’ve read up a lot on ways to find out but I’m still pretty clueless. Thanks

Silkies are a tough one. usually at 18 weeks you can call the stance and comb difference. Do you have any pics?

So the ones numbered 1-6 are when they were 15 weeks and the rest are 18 weeks

Where did you get them? If they are all supposed to be pullets, then that’s all I see. I’m not the best at sexing Silkies, so I could be far off!

I bought them from a guy from Durham. He sold them as unsexed to me as he wasn’t sure. So I picked all of the ones that to me looked like pullets but could be wrong. So do you think pullets? Thanks
