What color will they be?

[Sophias babies]

Can anyone tell me what color these silkies will be as adults? And if they seem to be bearded or not? The 2nd picture is the day I received them in the mail. 6 were yellow ish white, 4 were grayish with black? 1 was light brown with black and others were black? The 1st picture is some of them about 4 days old. I apologize for not real clear pictures.

Hello and welcome!

The grey chicks will be blue. The black ones will be black. That chick in the first pic is definitely bearded.

The white-ish ones.. are likely white.

The light brown with black was probably partridge.

Reviewing the web site of the hatchery where you got them from may help more clearly identify which colors you got. Silkies are near the bottom of the following page link..
