I am fairly versed in silkies and I snagged this little one at Atwoods today. I did not know cuckoo silkies were a thing!!
I am curious what color everyone thinks this one will end up. It seems to have a black "band" across its eyes and back of head. Has some lighter "fluff" feathers but mostly a grey/black color variation. Has five toes so for sure silkie though. Tell me what you all think!!

I'm also interested in seeing how it'll feather out! Looking forward to future updates :)

I'm also pretty new to the cuckoo color. This is my cuckoo pullet. I included some photos when she was younger and one of her now. She is my first cuckoo silkie. I had no idea that she'd turn out cuckoo, because I didn't know that cuckoos had a white head spot and I never noticed her faint spot.
