Silkie VS Polish

[EquiAsh95]

I currently am getting out of silkies due to them laying such small eggs and honestly having a lot of health issues even with us doing everything possible to help keep them clean etc.
so I was looking at polish and I am getting mixed things online. I see some saying they are the same size of silkies, some saying they are bigger than silkies, some say they lay tiny eggs like silkies, and some say they lay medium eggs. So I am looking for pros and cons of polish compared to silkies please.

Large fowl polish are around 3.5-4.5 lbs (if from hatchery). They tend to have some health issues due to the vaulted skulls but not as much as silkies. Polish are generally flighty but are sweet and inquisitive. I am unsure on their egg size as I don’t own any myself.

What about egg size?

The egg size is definitely better with polish - more like medium eggs.

Polish lay a LOT of eggs much more then Silkies. They are around the same size though, I own both. I personally like Polish better, my Silkie is very flighty but she's sweet.
