Is this a Silkie?

[CNJ]

I ordered 6 Bresse eggs on ebay and got 6 free assorted extras for processing delay. I can't figure out what this one is? It has feather on its leg and its tail look fluffy......and it has 5 toes and it was half the size of the rest.

It looks like a silkie but I'm not totally sure. The five toes make me think it is though.

It’s a mix of some sort, my guess would be silkie x Cochin. Dark skin and five toes definitely say silkie, but the feathers are smooth

The white Bresse chicks in the batch don't have feathers on their legs and they are growing much faster. At first I thought it was a bantam, but the fuzz on his head looked a little taller.

Is it a rose comb? The chick looks like it has white skin. Definitely a silkie mix I'd say.

Not a silkie. Silkies have five toes, black legs, black skin and black beaks and those are smooth feathers. Possibly a mix with a silkie. Also looks a tad bit like a sultan.

At about what age will I know for sure?

You won’t know for sure unless you contact the person you got eggs from they will tell you whether they have sultans or if it’s a mix and what breed possibilities.

That farm has not been answering their ebay email, they stop selling for time being.
