how can you tell as a baby chick if they are bearded?

Super fluffy faces. When they are chicks if they are bearded they will have poofy cheeks. If they are not bearded they will not have poofy cheeks and will look like the other regular chickens - on their faces. However - their heads can be poofy too.. Just wander thru this thread and look at the chick pictures - most of those chicks are bearded and it shows (think santa claus).

My children and their children came to visit over the weekend. My Grandsons loved feeding a little scratch to the flock. My Catdance Silkies free range with my layers and heritage Rhode Island Red group. Everybody gets along.







The Blue, Buff, and Partridge Catdance kids followed the three year old every where he went. So cute.

After my husband called me to say that 19 of my chickens (various breeds and nearly all of them 4 months old or younger) had been stolen, I immediately set out on my quest to find a newt Silkie roo (I was out of town). After some help from my daughter in another state, I got the phone # of the lady who had sold me my last one. I had a choice between a painted and this Calico. I don't show and I loved his color (yes I have been told it is not a ecognized color...but for my purposes, he is wonderful!) S000....here is a pic of my new guy:

Wow!!! He is beautiful!!

Might be a splash? or a lavender? What colors were the parents?

The roo is white. He's in the pen with a white, blue, and splash hen. I know he should only be with the white. We're building a new coop and run and they will be separated. I'm not sure which egg it came from.
