Is he a Silkie mix? Or pure Silkie?

This is my 5 month old baby roo named Bandit. He's black with gold neck feathers. Is he a cross? If he is, I can't tell what he's crossed with. He's the first Silkie we ever owned. My niece's boyfriend found the little guy in their front yard when he was only a week old, and we adopted him!

Just curious!

he's definitely a silkie cross. silkies have feathers that are more like fur. he might be mixed with something game.

It is crazy, but we all love it, and him!

My kids nicknamed him Mohawk Man.
