Polish have vaulted skulls like silkies and they have what I call a top knot or a small fuzz ball on top of their head.

A silkie just has a vaulted skull. They have different type of feathers but during their awkward stage it does kinda look like it. But still a different hair do than a polish.

This coming Monday, I will be putting my bator into lockdown with expected hatch to occur on Thursday. I also have a Broody Hen that is also expected to hatch the same day. I didn't candle the eggs under Ms. Broody and it appears that one of the eggs must have exploded or broke. I am still trying to understand how egg got on the inside window screen in Ms. Broody's playhouse., I had put 14 eggs under her and 25 eggs into the bater. Keeping my fingers crossed that this hatching is better than my second hatch.
