The look disturbs me a little bit you can’t see it’s adorable face because of all the feathers
It depends on what kind of silkie you have. Bearded Silkies and most little toy silkies are known for their hair covering their eyes. But some don't even need haircuts to keep it out of their eyes.The one below is a Giant Meat Silkie. He weighs as much as any of my older Rhodie roosters. He's a big boy.

Wait. Wait. Wait. You HAVE Easter Eggers? You want something the same size, and cute? That doesn't fly much? Why are we having this conversation? I have six Easter Eggers. When they free range and one get separated from the others, I have seen them fly as much as 20 ft but never more than 10 inches from the ground. When I go into the Run, I have to shuffle my feet, lest I step on one of them. If I sit down on the chair I keep in the Run, there will be an EE on each knee Within 15 seconds. And they insist on having conversations with me while they're there . Although I still can't understand their accent. I drop something on the ground and bend at the waist to pick it up, I'm guaranteed to have an EE on my back before I can straighten up.
This reminds me of my ex's parting words as she went out the door. You're always looking for something cuter, and don't appreciate what you've already got. so what breeds might be the same size of Easter Eggers also can you send me pictures of your Easter Eggers I have 5 week old chicks and im intrested what they might look like
Easter Eggers are mutts.
They can be almost any size and look like almost anything imaginable. All that qualifies them as an EE is that they MIGHT carry a blue egg gene.
 
Not all bantams are tiny. This is my blue Australorp bantam. Pretty, easily handled but feisty. Not a flier but she is something of an escape artist. What she can't go over she goes under. She's about 3rd in the pecking order amongst mostly standard breeds.

My Wyandotte bantam, Lottie. Super sweet, really friendly ~ but quite tiny. The standards are a dominant breed so in the bantams they are feisty enough to hold their own amongst the bigger birds. Not much of a flier. Can, but usually only to escape the big girls.

Cyprus is absolutely RIGHT. They're mutts. Not an established breed. And eggs vary. Attached are my eggs today. 6 chicks , 6 eggs. 2 blue, 2 sea foam green, and 2 green.
