My silkie × bantam brahma chick hatched today. The other one's due to hatch next week. So far looks like it has black skin and 5 toes. Feet are a light color. Can't wait to see how it's gonna grow up. I hope it'll be a pullet. The black one in the picture is it's sibling.

I have an update on my little silkie × bantam brahma chick. It is really pretty. It's like silver with dark stripes and spots on the head.
In the last 2 pictures it's with it's half sibling. Both have the same dad, but the black one is pure silkie. They kept trying to eat each other's toes while taking pictures.
So another update on the silkie × bantam brahma chick. I named it Oakley in hopes that it will be a pullet if it has a boy name. (I had a chick named George be a pullet last year).

Oakley is growing really pretty brown feathers with white tips!!

The 2nd silkie × bantam brahma egg has pipped. I'm expecting it to hatch by tomorrow. I'm excited to see how similar or different these 2 will be as full siblings.

Can anyone help me guess if these 2 will be crested or bearded? 1st is older bantam brahma × silkie mix named Oakley (6 days old today) and the 2nd is the younger chick of the same parents (1 day old today) both are full siblings.

First 2 pics are of the older chick.
The next 3 are of the younger chick.
Last one is older chick.

My guess is that older chick will have a small crest and possibly a very small beard and the younger chick will have a bigger beard and crest. I know it's still too early and we don't know if it will stick around as they get their feathers, but just game a guess.

It also sort of looks like they might have some sort of lacing on their feathers.
