I have 8 white silkies from ideal and I am completely satisfied. All of mine but one has 5 toes. Plenty of fluff and more on their feet then i expected. Every one of them has black skin. Two of them have vaulted skulls. Though i am disappointed that none are bearded. But overall i am extremely satisfied. They are very sweet and i'm glad i bought them. I think that any bird regardless of breed is going to look worse from a hatchery then from a breeder. It would be nice to be able to buy poultry from a breeder but not every one has the money to spend 15 dollars per chick. I think that average poultry enthusiast would enjoy a silkie from ideal. I think it is a farcry to call them "buzzards" but it could be that I just lucked out. I wish I could post pictures of my silkies but i'm posting from my cell phone. I would imagine that if you have gotten 50+, you would at least have a few pictures. But I digress, I have heard from multiple sources that the best quality are the white. So if you decide to buy some, get the white. Then again you could decide to just fork over a few more bucks and get some chicks from breeder. If you can afford to go that route, then go right on ahead. But if your on a budget, then get some silkies from ideal. I don't regret it at all.
