I think chick #1 is also a male. When I picked out my first Silkie I picked this little guy up first because he looked “unique” he had spots on top of his head lol and the others didn't... well now I know why but as for bearded or non-bearded I was wondering the same thing about this my 2 buff Silkies? This is my girl Cinnamon, Roo is up top.

Is this a bearded silkie mix??

looks like an ameracauna mix to me or something more like that, but could be silkie

Welcome to read it, just noting the date as the person you were responding to, will not likely answer at this point.

thank you, I just interjected knowing they may not respond, but maybe they'll read it in their inbox and be like "hmm... maybe it is an Ameracauna!"

It may very well be! I have an ameraucana/silkie cross, though her comb is different.

You can post photos of your silkie in question if you like on its own thread, I am sure you will get many responses.

It's actually not a silkie. It was supposed to be a cochin. But it has 5 toes and looks like it has a crest and beard. Adorable chick, though. Maybe have a silkie ancestor.

You're right - the comb of that poster's chicken looks more like a salmon faverolle
