Yes, but I don't think it's breed. There are silkies and there are silkie bantams...

Are silkies Bantams?
Characteristics. Silkies are considered a bantam breed in some countries, but this varies according to region and many breed standards class them officially as large fowl; the bantam Silkie is actually a separate variety most of the time.

I received a reply already from one seller i bought from and she said the egg isn't from her but that

"Silkies are the only chicken breed to come in 3 sizes"
Large fowl
Bantam
Miniature Bantam"

Hi all, these are my 7 week old silkies - both the same age. The small one on the left hatched from a tiny egg labeled as "mini bantam", has anyone else came across this before? Is it just a mini egg or an actual breed? I assume its a mini silkie bantam. Its adorable!! Also I assume the left one is a female, any suggestions would be great.

I shoulda never clicked on the posting. Now I gotta order some of these lol.
