Can someone help me out with this little thing here... It hatched out solid white.. Grew in white initially.. Started seeing some black/blue specks at few weeks.. At that point I'm excited assuming it's splash.. Now at 16 weeks I'm confused lol there's all this buff coloring coming through.. What's going on here? I've never seen a splash this color before :confused: I believe the person I get the hatching eggs from only has blues, blacks, and splashes...

Ok...I ordered a pet quality blue silkie from ideal poultry. I ended up with 2, I think. Both were grey babies. One lighter than the other. And they have grown to be one black rooster and one dark grey hen. Are they considered blue? How would you tell?

This is mr. Fancy pants as a baby

And half grown (cant find recent pics of him but he is a great rooster)
