Hiya, and welcome to BYC!! 
Silkies mature slower and aren't adults until around 10 months so might still be growing out of it.
Hopefully, it's still on starter/grower feed. I'd be giving poultry cell in their water twice a week at the minimum too. Usually, it's a genetic trait, and sometimes can be because of diet, but I still think it's a little too early to know for sure.
They'll grow up fine, but that would knock them out of show quality and regardless, I wouldn't breed those who have it.
