Hello, I just bought 2 broken Lionheads, one I thought was blue eyed and the other brown. It turns out they are both marbled. I have only been breeding for a year so I am not sure if they are good to breed. Is the marbled eye really a disorder? Should I breed them or is the eye coloring bad...

I have a white, light brown, and black rooster that I want to rehome. Does anyone have a need for a silkie rooster? He has never attacked anyone. I will try and get a photo. Located in Purcellville, VA
