How old is this cutie? Looks barred (cuckoo) to me. Do you have a full body side view photo?

This is an interesting one! Does look a little silver partridge as well with the color gradient and definitely does not look pure Silkie. Also seems to be small/younger than 12 weeks.
Most Silkies start to get their crests in around 3-4 weeks of age if not sooner.
Will be very interesting to see how this one looks fully feathered as an adult.
For comparison here is my 9 week old blue Silkie.
