Ignore the mess on the Showgirl's face....they just had some fresh corn on the cob - LOL
Is there a tiny waddle showing?
I looked & couldn't see one, but I "think" there is one in the pic.
The head poof is beautiful, BUT
Are these streamers?
If it's a cockerel I'm fine with it. ( of course a pullet would be better - LOL)
Just do Not want to put this bird with a roo if it's a male.
It's 4 months old, & I'm having trouble sexing it.
OPINIONS?

Hard to tell, just too dark to see waddles, really not streamers yet.

Sorry to bug you kenya - but I'm going to anyway LOL
I REALLLLLY hope my SG is a pullet!!!
SO, Do you think this silkie has "streamers"?
I think I am cofusing Long feathers with streamers.
I know you sent pics before...guess I will just have to wait.

Still not see screamer's, it is standing more like a male though. I'm still on the fence with this one, by now you should start to see streamers but you have a lot of pin feathers yet waiting to come out, so I think you'll have to wait another month to be sure.

THANX for the input....maybe I'm "imaging" the streamers - LOL
The only thing giving me hope is that so far there has not been a Crow.
I removed the last cockerel from the flock on Saturday.
It's Wednesday & still no Crow, or drama in the flock.
If there is no crow by Saturday, then I feel that maybe, just maybe I have some great looking pullets!!!!
Thanx every one for the comments & opinions (*o*)
