Hard to tell at that age. Maybe mixed? What colors are the parents?

To be honest it almost looks like lacing

Cool! But i'm thinking the Silkie feathering may have some issues with it. Or not who knows. But the reason I said lacing is because it looks like a Silver Sebright chick.

I was going to say grey (which is silver partridge), but not quite the usual presentation. For one thing, these chicklets appear to be going to have a wing patch--none of my silkies ever have,

i'm sorry, but i could help myself but: Hello There! whats it like in NZ?

i live in America! and question, why did the english have to standerize silkies, then rebantamize it?

 

[Sonoran Silkies]

Ummm, no one that's posted on this thread is British. NZpouter is in New Zealand.

my apologies, its just that england, austrlia(or however you spell it) and new zealand to me, are much alike in spelling and the such. i'm not to good in Geography, even know i am 3rd best in the geography bee at my school.
