What color might my silkies become?

[Mijo79]

Yes! We have three adorable silkie chicks running around since monday.
Their names are Moira, Alexis and David (yes, we have our very own ‘Chicks Creek’) and they should be all hens.
(I know you can’t be completely sure until they lay eggs or start to crow, so I am just enjoying them.)

But I am very curious what color they might be when they are grown. Any ideas from the seasoned enthusiasts here?

Adorable!

Sometimes with silkies it’s a guess what they become as they can change so much week by week until adult.

David appears to be a paint in the first picture.

I’m not sure who is who in the second picture as there is no paint there but two partridges and a silver or perhaps light mauve.

It’ll be interesting to see when they grow up a little!

Thank you! So it’s going to be a surprise as well. I am curious to see how they will develop!

In the second picture, from left to right, are David, Alexis and Moira.
