What color will these Silkie chicks be?

[NewToFarming]

I just hatched out these little guys 1-2 days ago which I never thought they would hatch because the last one was on day 25! Can anyone tell me what colors these little guys will end up to be?

I am assuming the middle one will be partridge but I have no idea what the other 2 might be??

This is a close up of the one I believe to be partridge.

The first one that I have no idea what color this one will be.

Here is the last little guy that was born on day 25

Hey! They are adorable! Are the dads the birds you got from me? The one is a partridge and the other two probably will end up looking like grays.

the third looks like a splash

Yes! Both Mom & Dad are from the ones I got from you. The partridge has "Animal" written all over him because I see an attitude already!

Animal is he black splash I had gotten from you.

So, the light color ones will end up to be gray or maybe a gray type splash?

Yes I would say gray that's how all my chicks feather out if their down is that color I have a couple chicks like that now that are around the same age As yours

Thanks! So you can kind of tell by the color of the down what they will end up to be?

Thanks! It seems these silkies just keep you guessing all the time!

Hannah...I will have to send you a pic of the favorelle/silkie chick. She is turning out to be quite pretty. Even has a bit of poof on her head and lots of feathering on her feet. Notice I am saying she because I really don't need another roo!

I've been noticing that the fav/silkie cross chicks that have patterning appear to be pulleys and if they are solid whitish that their roosters
