Bearded Silkie Chicks: How to tell?

They will have fluff on their neck under their beak. Crest size has nothing to do with bearded or non-bearded.

I have three silkies and i have just started to notice that two have puffy cheeks and one does not so i think I'm going to end up with two bearded.

Also, my son notices that one of our silkies Rosie has SEVEN TOES!!!!!

I should take and pic and post it.
 
bearded literly means that they have a beard right under the chin that goes from ear to ear and yes you can tell by its a liittle more floofy under the chin of the chick
 
Thanks Silkiechicken----we still love her---we call her Rosie with to many toesies.

I was holding her last night, she was a week old Tuesday, and I flipped her over onto her back and was rubbing her belly and there, staring me in the face was two little feet with 12 toes.

Cute.
