Silkie question: Satin or no?

[MargoStewart]

I have two, almost 4 week old silkies. They are both getting feathers that look more feathery than floofy. Is this an indication that they are satins? This is my splash girl. She was all white and it’s so fun to see her color coming out. Also, she’s straight run but I’m just speaking both of my silkies being girls into existence.

Those are silkies, satins will have smooth feathers

Thanks! I knew what the difference was but was having a hard time finding babies of this age. I was hoping they were silkies. Now I just hope they don’t start crowing.

They’re a little to young to tell yet. Hopefully you’ll have pullets
