I have 4 silkie babies that are about 2 weeks old and I was curious about what breeds they are. The other one in the picture is a silver duck wing old English.

I was wondering about that possibility.2 Partridges.
Lot's of people have Silkies that throw too few or too many toes. They would be considered pet quality... and should not be bred. I haven't hatched any like that YET. I don't know if their parent stock are throwing hidden faults or if they don't select for quality.The two with the eye stripes have five toes like most silkies, but the one buff has only one foot with an extra toe and the other had no extra toes
They are about 2 weeks old and the silver duck wing is 4 weeksI've never seen silkies with eye stripes either, wonder if they are mixed. As for gender, silkies are extremely difficult to sex before 4-5 mos. of age and sometimes not till they crow or lay eggs.
How old are yours?
