Any guesses what colors these guys will be? Thanks

Got these chicks at the tractor supply store 3 days ago. They were in the asst. bantam box. They have dark skin and hairy legs so I believe they are silkies. This my first chicken experience. I'm guessing the lightest one will be white, but what about the other ones?

I think you will have to wait 4-6 weeks until they start to feather out. It's hard to tell when they are that young. Good luck to you!

The two on the right are starting to grow a crest. What color feet do they have and how many toes?
