Do I have splash or white silkies?

Spash chicks at hatch usually have white or very pale silvery white down, often confused with self blue (lavender) which can look similar. White chicks often have yellow or greyish down and then feather out white. The splash will gradually develop more and more "splashes" as they grow, ending in varying amounts of greyish blue over the white background.😊
 
Found some old photos of two of mine at 4 weeks.
First one is white, second one is splash. Pretty hard to tell the difference at this age.
