Which do you Prefer? Bearded or Non?

[Woods_Woman]

I am wondering what people prefer in the silkies they keep, bearded or Non bearded. I myself love the look of silkies, but I prefer the bearded.

bearded.. cause there's none around here...

I prefer bearded, but have one that is non-bearded and seems to be maturing quite nicely. I think she/he is just as pretty as the others.

I like the bearded..

 

[kandyg_99]

I love them both......

Good info. Does the beard at all interfere with eye sight, or cause any eye problem with having feathering so close to the eyes?
