Thanks for the replies. Good news. Yes I think they all had the same mother (a white silkie) but the others were fathered by a bantam cross. Beautiful mixed bird

Really? Wow. That's good news. Thanks for the reply. Btw, how can you tell they are silkie crosses? (which I think they are based on the vague story I got when I got the eggs)

Can anyone sex these? I'm a bit of a novice at this. The reddish looking bantam is about 20 weeks and the silkie and grey one both about 18. No crowing or eggs yet. Thanks.

No Seramas that I knew of. I guess a lot of eggs could look like silkie eggs

Kind of a creamy colour. Looked the same as one of my silkie eggs.

Ah! Thanks for enlightening me! I had never noticed that silkies had 5 toes. Feeling a bit ignorant now :) Anyway, no. it doesn't. I think it MUST be a welsummer then. Thanks.

They are breeders and have a lot of different breeds. I asked for ( and thought I had ) silkie eggs

Thanks. We thought that too because we have a welsummer. The egg was the size of our silkies' eggs though..and much smaller than the welsummer eggs.

I was given a couple of fertile eggs (silkie-size eggs) and was a bit surprised one actually hatched. Does anyone know what this is? Sorry the photos are not great
