BEAUTIFUL SILKIE! CHICKI

one of our 20 day old chicks just got pulled out of the goose pond, "its ok its back under mum", they said, i wonder about my family sometimes,
went over to mum and she got up to show me the cold drowned rat under her, hardly able to walk, lots of distress noises as i carried her into the house and got the hair drier out, she didnt want to get off my hand first of all as i expect i was her only heat source but after a few minutes of blowing her wings then her back and holding her up to get air flow on her underside she quietened down a bit, but looks like someone on a bad hair day, her back feathers are fluffed up and her wings arent as well kept, they seem to be low and quite wide but she did flap them, put her back in the run and she ran straight to mum, who after a little look, crouched down to allow her to get some warmth. im hoping after a warming a stretch and a bit of pruning. her feathers will be back to normal, lets hope she gets through the night as she seems to be running ok and isnt as vocal as she was. i dont believe they just left her wet and cold,.

Can anyone help me identify Matilda? (right) She is Cochin, but I can't figure out if she will eventually be mottled or barred. I am hoping mottled.
Also, this little cutie, her Daddy Roo is a Blue Cochin her Momma Hen is a Blue Partridge Cochin. But, I have bee studying pictures and I believe she may be a Blue Lemon Cochin? Am I right? Any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
 
Ohhhh they are soooooo cute and I don't know breeds too good so hopefully someone has some! I think that is a male (sorry to say)
( bottom pic on the right) So good blessing with your beauties! xxx
