The olive egger rooster has strong silkie genes, that could be where the wide comb is from... Thanks so much GitaBooks, my guesses where different, it's so much fun to try figure these things out before hand "are you a boy or a girl?" Like they're going to tell us! LOL

Hey everyone, Question regarding my 5 week old chicks… more to come…. what gender are they??? I think this is a pullet… (mom is an easter egger and dad is an olive egger) I think this is a cockerel…. (mom is an isbar and dad is an olive egger) This one i'm not sure about…...

Their mother was a bantam silkcana, father was silkrace. They lay blue eggs. The following are landrace eggers. Most likely the mom of the father was the white hen. Currently working on a strain of pastel blue eggers and olive eggers. Project olive rooster, Waylon

Silkie eggers

Another family. The red hen, ruby is a silkcana, White rooster is bullet, he's a silkrace, the white pullets are are their 2 daughters.

Deirdre, born early this spring, her mom is in background, she is a purebred brabanter. Her father was a silkrace.

Waylon the rooster, hatched feb 17, 2015. His mother was a pure bred blue isbar and his father was a bantam red silkcana. Pic of both parents are also attached, as well as Waylon's full sister, loona the black hen, and her mom a purebred black isbar. [/IMG]

A whole family. The red rooster is the father hawkeye, he is a bantam silkcana. The platinum hen in the back is the mom, she is a landrace mix, Easter egger. The 2 in front are their son and daughter. Red eagle is the son, and his sister is tundra.

being in the chicken and duck world for about 2 1/2 years, I've learned a lot and want to thank you all, as I have looked to the site for help. And will likely do it again to find out more!
