Can you post photos? Not all silkies have black skin, many have slate coloured skin. The darker skin seems to go with blacker feather colouring.

However, I can't tell from your description if the skin is slate or pink/white? The later would make the silkie pet quality, while the former is normal.

As to the feathering, can you post a photo? Might they be frizzled?
