I don't have any pictures yet, but my day old Silkie is a color combo I have never seen before. It is a dark grey and buttery yellow combo. I have splash varieties, but they were more white when chicks. Most of my flock is dark grey, I have one partridge hen, 2 splash hens and one white roo Otherwise the rest are all dark grey.

I like everything about it except how it looks right now. I know it lays decently. It is a great part of my great waterfowl flock. -
First, watching a runner duck run is awesome. They can find their own food. They aren't like pekins in water. Mine haven't started laying but I heard their decent. -
Its not as fat and slow as a pekin, but its not frail either. I want a mallard but I don't want a flying bird. The rouen is great for that. -
They are my calmest birds and are easiest to catch. They eat less than Pekins. I heard they also lay well, but mine are younger.
