Silkies?

[Chands]

In my quest to find silkies, I came across these two little bedraggled chicks. They stink to high heavens and their pretty dirty, but I want to let them calm down before I stress them out more by bathing them. I don't think they're silkies though, unfortunately. Does anyone have any idea about what they are? They are kind of fuzzy, but their legs look like my Mille de'fleur. I can post more pics after they're bathed, but I was just curious... thanks in advance!

They look like porcelain d'uccle.

They look like porcelain d'uccle.

I agree strongly with you.
D'uccles' feathered legs set them apart from most other bantams and their smooth body feathering (mostly smooth, anyway) identifies it clearly as a D'uccle!!!
Congratulations on your new chicks!!!!! e From raising numerous D'uccles myself, I can testify that they're a truly wonderful breed!

Thanks unfortunately we have a six bird, hen only, limit here and I really want a silkie so the plan right now is for these to go to my sister and brother-in-law's farm when they're old enough and healthy. Unless we fall in love with them, which is a distinct possibility.

Look like Porcelain duccles to me. Thye are great birds, I'd be surprised if you didn't fall in love with them.
