Bantam Silkie vs. Standard Silkie-- whats the difference?

i have been looking for the best broodie hens, would you say the silkies are good broodies..? thats what i have been hearing on line , but im not sure how big the silkies are..? could a silkie hen hatch 4 regular size chicken eggs like a BR size egg..?

Silkie x Cochin cross were always my best broodys. I've had some that would hatch duck and turkey eggs.
 
I would like to share my big boy silkie. I would like your opinions on his size. He's standing next to a 5 gallon bucket.
