Yes, the black one has a pretty small comb. Nothing that stands out, except she (??) has a bigger flap below just on one side.

I have NO idea what they are because they are almost a year old and they have not given us any eggs OR crowing. The only thing I know about them is their position(s) in their little group. Molly (the white) is the Alpha, although Lulu (The black) often tries to over take. Lulu was sick and weak...

One of my silkies has a black thin/flat flap hanging from its beak. The other to do not have this. Is this specific to Roos?

The closest I have is the white one head on, as shown above. Other than that, they don't really look like anything. Not pronounced..

Yeah, I can't tell. When I think they are one thing, the next minute they may give me some other indicator showing the opposite, haha. Though, I am not experienced with the breed yet except for these so I am still learning.

Their coop is currently being built. They should be in it VERY soon! :)

Any other guesses?

Although I am pretty inexperienced with the breed (or chickens for the matter), I was thinking the same thing. S/he is also significantly bigger than the other two.

Any idea? I have lost count as to how old they are. I am thinking 8-10 weeks. Thanks :)

Her eyes look better but other than that.. I have no idea, really. She still has an unkempt look about her. The other birds are filling out and becoming really fluffy looking and getting their fluffy tails. Lulu looks little, still. I am wondering if I should just put her back with her flock...

Thanks. Are those tests affordable? Didn't even think of the pine shavings being an issue. I'll have to look into putting her on something else just in case.

That's a great question. I have been wondering the same thing, myself!

How is she doing today?
