5 day old silkie chick will it have a big crest?

[kuki mom]

Hello this is a 5 day old silkie mix chick, they have some mixed genes although both parents look like pure silkies. Can someone tell me if this one has a vaulted skull or not? Will it have a good crest ?

Looks like has a small Vaulted Skull, so it's crest should be good, & full.

Here's a non vaulted.

Doesn't appear to be a mix. Won't know 100% until it feathers out though.

Anyway I know they r mixed because what the breeder gave me as siblings grew up and have normal feathers, and one of the chicks born came out with white skin.
