TSC Bantam- guess that breed!

[MaineChicken56]

I haven’t owned chickens in years but decided to start up a little bantam flock. I grabbed 7 straight run bantams at TSC and have absolutely no idea what they are. Most of them look pretty similar so I imagine same breed. One does appear to be a silkie with black skin and 5 toes, but I’m not sure what color? Any help would be so appreciated!!

You have some Silkies. Can you get comb pics for the golden ones?

Thank you!!
Any guesses on the color of that silkie? Doesn’t appear to be buff or white?

The Silkie should feather out white. Mine with that color down were white. cute little sweeties you have there!!

Let us know when you find out. I've never seen one like that.

It was a silkie mix!

It's not mixed. Just two parents carried the recessive trait for single comb. It's not unusual.
