What could they be?

Ok. Here's 4 more chicks (6 wks now, I believe) that came from the mystery batch that were supposed to be pure Silkies...HA!!! Supposed to be 3 blue/splash & 1 buff. The guy I got them from showed me his breeding pens & there's just NO WAY....So what could be in there? Any clue?

Here's "Blue A"-notice single comb & pink-spotted feet

Here's "Blue B"

"Blue C"-notice wierd 6th toe

Here's the "buff"- he has pretty amber eyes that I couldn't seem to capture here...

Yay! Thanks...I figured it out, FINALLY!

For the most part, they look very much like my 6-week old Silkies, except for the extra toe and the single comb.

Looks like some Silkie-mix due to the single comb.

I'm also thinking they are all mixed, because I have 3 more from him, all "Silkies", & none are developing crests like the Silkies about the same age that I have from other sources, as well as the fact that the buff has blue spots throughout, & all are showing odd traits, like some of their eyes look lighter now. I've had them 3 weeks, so the first 3 shown here are about 5 weeks. I took the pics last night. The last one is 3 wks, & has all barbed feathers, NO SILKIE FEATHERS @ all! I'm going to email the guy & say "WTH???" (Not literally, but that's what I'm thinking!)

Thanks for the input!
