I hatched 5 babies for my neighbor from her own flock
4 eggs cream color
1 white
all are at least half silkie

first one to hatch was from the white egg, and a cute little fat yellow chick no polish or sultan traits in her (my neighbor has both) we know the dad is more than likely Darryl her black silkie,all chicks have 5 toes, (one actually has only 5 toes one 1 foot)
So we are really curious what this little one is going to look like
the female I am assuming would have to be a breed that lays white eggs

I kept 2 of the little ones for myself.
the rest of the 4 were all black all with 5 toes.
so I kept one that looked like part polish, though she came out of a cream egg
you think part polish?
she is also not as fat and fluffy as the others and she had some pretty yellow tips on her wings and a little yellow section on the side of her poof

As the chicks get feathers you will have a better idea of any crosses. Should the chicks have silkied feathering they are pure silkie; providing your neighbor has no other breeds that have silkied feathers.

This hen is a Polish/Phoenix cross; fun to see what cross breeds turn out like.
