Is this one, two or three birds? Top two photos look buff; bottom one looks to have a bit different hue.

Nice plumage colouring, but it looks like he's been playing in his water!

Just wondering, how old will a silkie be by the time it's crest has grown as large as its going to get?

This has been asked before. I haven't seen it get much bigger after 16 weeks - but I have seen it fill in a bit. I have seen a difference between week 12 and week 16, but after that - nothing that I can notice visually. It could have, but I must not be noticing it very well.
