She’s a tad bigger than my other silkie, which had me wondering. And she has a slight comb, but it doesn’t seem to be as large as the ones I’ve seen online at this age.
Well silkies are definitely hard to tell the gender. The only true way to know is if they lay an egg or crow. But in my experience with silkies (little over a year) her puff on her head and her tail feathers look right for a pullet. Also her comb is female looking as well. However, I had a black silkie that had all the correct looks as being a pullet and she turned out to be a he. He fooled me!
