I have four polkie(polish/silkie) eggs in my incubator now I can't wait to see how they're going to look.

I've crossed Silkie/ EE as well. I bred a splash hen back to our gold laced appenzeller, and the pullet we kept is white with black splashes, and red leakage. She has a white beard and muffs. ADORABLE!!Carolina Hen, your baby is the exact same color that my silkie x EE's!! It will turn our mostly black. More color might come in when it gets all the adult feathers!
Oh she is very pretty!♡♡ I love the blue ears on her black feathering! She's adorable!I have several chickens that are the result of a cross between a white Silkie rooster and a barred bantam non-Silkie hen (not sure what breed). These are F1s and subsequent crosses--a couple of them have passed away, the oldest are 6 years old. All of them have had 5 toes so far, some have crests or are fluffier than usual but no Silkie feathers. Some black-skinned, some pink-skinned, and some with blue earlobes. The hens are all very broody!
