Thank you both!  I thought so but then I read something that made me question myself. lol.  I have never had Silkies before so this is all new territory.  These came from a stock tank at TSC that was listed as "Variety Bantams" but they were all the same type of chick.  Dang - now I wish I had gotten a few more. :)
