Hello! About 7 weeks ago I picked up 3 chicks that are supposed to be Bantam Silkies. The guy at the store had several different breeds that were all labelled except for one. He told me they just came in today and must be the silkies even though they weren't labelled. I was just wondering if they really are Silkies or if they are a mix/different breed. I looked up pictures online and they don't look like Silkies, they are about 7-8 weeks old.

Not Silkies, but very pretty! Agree they look like lavender Orpingtons.😊

I had a feeling from fairly early on that they were not the right breed but wasn't sure which breed (I'm new to raising chickens!). Thank you so much for your reply 😊!

No problem, lavender orps. are a great breed (or so I heard).

Help me ID my “eagle!” Big girl was pale yellow with black specks as a chick. (Dalmatian like.)
