What type of Silkies??

[ChickyChick82]

These babies are about 4-5 weeks old. The breeder had only Silkies. I thought Frizzle Satins?? Curly feathers but some are straight. They aren't Cochins.

Frizzles?
I heard Frazzles mostly don't make it to hatch or long after. But I'm no expert.
They're cute what ever they are.

The breeder told me she has had all feathers types from her hatches. I have a Frazzle from another breeder, she is almost 3.

Maybe it was a poor hatch rate I was thinking of. Like I said, I'm no Frizzle/Frazzle expert.

Frazzled can hatch and survive, but often have problems with sensitive skin and terribly brittle feathers

Frazzles typically don't live real long. They end up with a slew of health issues.

Not silkies. Definitely frizzled satins.
