My silkie chickies are not bearded, are they?

They are 3 weeks old. I'm thinking that they aren't.
**sigh**
Never gonna be able to find pretty bearded white ones!!

I dont know how easy it is to see a beard on a young silkie, but on my EEs their beard kind of dissappears when they start getting feathers, and then grow back in later. It can be harder to tell when only one of the parents has a beard also.

I have a couple silkie chicks that don't look like they have beard and some breeders told me to give them a couple months as sometimes they are slow to grow them in if they are going to bearded. So it could happen. I am hoping mine do as well.Good luck and those babies you have are adorable.

Ok.....think I may wait instead of selling them. Thanks to both of you!
