How old?

[Zahboo]

I got these silkie chicks last night and he claimed they were 8 weeks, but IDK. Either my 9 week olds are way older or these are younger.

Meet Poppy and Rose

Yes I am aware they are low quality

 

[LindsayB]

probably around 3 weeks. it looks like they only feathers on their wings and back.

 

[Zahboo]

Yeah they have jus a couple feathers forming where their crests should be, but not many. 3 weeks sounds about right.


What color? They were sold on CL as self blues, but I know they aren't Lavs. I was thing a blue and either a dark blue or black.

 

[Happy Chooks]

I was thinking 4 weeks.

So around a month? Maybe he got his months mixed up of when they hatched. They are outside now because its 85-90 degrees. Tonight they'll come inside though.
