Are silkies the only chicks with extra toes?

[cheepsforkeeps]

We purchased what we think are 2 silkie chicks, they are prob. 2 weeks old. One is black and the other "white" but its buttery colored now. They were mixed in with lots of frizzles. The one that will be white doesn't seem to have as much round puff on it's head like the black one, but everything else looks similar. The light one's beak is black and the skin appears to be black. Are Silkies the only chicks with extra toes? Just wanted to make sure I got two silkies! Any help on ID would be great, thanks.

If it has black skin along with 5 toes it's a Silkie. There are other breeds with 5 toes, but not with black skin.

There are a number with 5 toes.

Salmon Faverolles among them.

The black skin is your deciding factor. And not all silkies have a big poof on their heads either. Some have smaller ones.

We got four little Silkie chicks this spring, "just for fun" and had them a week before we noticed those strange feet. Had they not all had those extra toes I would have thought there was something wrong! Had no idea chickens vary in the number of toes they have!

They're awfully cute though!
