Do you have a link to Anh's pictures of her results from the hatch? I bought 3 silkies from her a while back. They are gorgeous.
Curious if these are out of those hatch-- which might mean these are your babies???
Its possible. Anh had a few pics on her auction for some of the extras and alot more on her Facebook page.
Ps... when i shipped them and this fall, priority shipping for all 4 dozen eggs came to only $13. Compare that to about $80 for sending a horizon box express mail.
This next picture is off tint b/c I had her in the sunlight from my office tinted windows. She's definitely not this color shown but, the pic was so cute I couldn't resist showing it.

Oh wow! This is so neat! I bet they are yours, then. These are only 4 months old... that would be about right? I have the prettiest Splash cockerel and a black pullet. I also have an "it" that I just can't decide boy or girl. I'm thinking boy, but then just when I decide that... "it" confuses me again! LOL! Maybe in another month I will post a picture of 'him'. There is no comb yet... but that can still come in, right? Anyway, I love them all sooo much. They come inside with me and my cockerel is my FAVORITE bird now. Even over my layers. I have a couple of layers that I thought I loved to death. Not as much as this cockerel- he's the sweetest thing. He'll just sit there forever with me all snuggled in and watch tv with me at night. He loves to be pet and coos at me while I give him attention. I'm so glad that Anh needed to get rid of a few of hers!
When do silkies start to get their comb and crow if they are a little boy? I'm keeping my "it" regardless of what it is, 'he' is just a sweetie. My others, I could tell kind of early on...especially if a comb is starting to grow-- but they are hatchery stock, and just not as nice, so who knows why that is.
Hmmmm... The first shipment of eggs to Anh was on 5/31 and second was on 6/6. If we count a couple days enroute and 3 weeks to hatch, those chicks would have been about 5 months old right now. I know she showed a few at a show recently and placed well despite them being pretty young and far from finished yet.
