Here's the silkie that we got yesterday, but she doesn't look nearly as fluffy as the rest of the silkies on here. We were told she is about 5-6 weeks old and her feathers are just coming in. Is this accurate? Is she pure silkie? Will she look like the other fluffy silkies that are posted here? And is she even really a "she"? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!!!

Hello fellow back yard chickeners. I have a silkie mamma on 10 eggs. Today is her due date. I am new with silkies and BYC. Can you give your input on the questions bellow.........
- about how many should hatch out of 10 eggs
- are most silkie eggs hatched on 21 days later precisely
-will the eggs hatch while mamma is in her nest
THANK YOU!!!!!

Something must be wrong. My silkie just hatched 8 days ago and she has more feathers than that!
Best of luck!
