wow how old is she, doesnt really look silkie. Is she furry?

she looks like a oriental gamefowl but she has a poof on her head and greyish colored skin most likely has silkie because other black meat breeds r to expensive and rare

I have lots of silkie mixes, but this one is the first with a beard. Takes after her mom (cochin) in personality.

My silkie mixes are usually the friendliest and good moms. Except one - the meanest hen I have. She is the head hen in my big flock and I HATE trying to collect eggs if she is in the nest box. She bites and draws blood.
