    Paint X Partridge Silkies... what colour are these chicks!?

    Thank you 😊 Elvira turned out gorgeous! I’m still 99.9% certain she is a pullet, but so far I have 15 roosters from 20 chicks so knowing my luck she would make a quick turn around and surprise me by being a roo 🤦🏻‍♀️. The chick that was the same colour as Elvira at hatch is a Silkied version of...

    Paint X Partridge Silkies... what colour are these chicks!?

    #2 (Elvira) & #3 growing into their feathers ❤ These 2 are my favourite of the bunch. The porcelain is still the friendliest, oddest, chick I’ve ever raised. I'm hoping they’re not both roos, because that would be just my luck lol.

    Paint X Partridge Silkies... what colour are these chicks!?

    She’s a doll. As soon as I lift her out of the brooder she just goes limp, legs dangling, and when I put her on my palm she proceeds to get comfy and wait to be pet. #5, however, is a bit of a stinker 😂 , even though I socialize them all exactly the same. It’s funny how they all have their own...

    Paint X Partridge Silkies... what colour are these chicks!?

    I haven’t gotten any feedback on them yet, but now that their wings are coming in it’s looking like I have a traditional partridge, a blue partridge (#1), a possible silver partridge (#2 - her feathers are looking black with taupe chunks, but laced in white, it’s bizarre), a blue cream/porcelain...

    Paint X Partridge Silkies... what colour are these chicks!?

    4 out of 8 are dry and in the brooder now. #1 #2 One of the smutty white/porcelain. Now that it is dry I can see it has a red stripe down it’s back. And a group photo 🥰 (it’s a little dark,but the the colour is more accurate in this one). I love how marked the little paint is! Seeing the...

    Paint X Partridge Silkies... what colour are these chicks!?

    I aquired a few Silkie eggs on part trade for some hens, and they started hatching this morning. They came from a pen with a Paint rooster, 2 Paint hens, and a Partridge hen (if I remember right though she was smooth, making her a possible mutt). I’m working with Paints this year, so I planned...
