Just like Yorkies, Silkies come in various sizes. I think the breed standard for a Silky is 8 to 11 lbs. Whereas a Yorkie is under 8. I may be off a bit on that but not much. My Moka was 7.5 lbs at her last vet check and she is 3 years old so fully grown. My Mylee I am guessing will mature out around 8 lbs. too, but I purchased her from a breeder breeding them to the breed standards so that is what I expect. I have two co-workers that have Silkies around 6 lbs.
