I just got this Silkie and I'm not sure if it is actually what you would consider splash or something totally different. (Maybe a mix of colors?) It has red on the wings (which I didn't think would go with a splash)I I was told "she" is just under a year, and is supposed to have started laying already.. The comb is bigger than my other girls, but smaller than my Roo's. Any thoughts? TIA!!!


 
Looks like it is a mix of several varieties. The comb is somewhat large for a pullet, but the shape is pullety. I think you'll only know for sure if "she" crows or lays an egg.

Lol If she turns out to be a he, I'm gonna need some more Silkie ladies (only have two at the moment and a Frizzle with my Roo)
 
Could you get a couple good profile shots? Right now I'm leaning towards a partridge roo because of the coloring and possible streamers. More pictures would maybe help.
 








Hopefully, these are better with lighter background...Let me know if I need to take different ones

Do you think those are streamers? I've not been very good at identifying streamers

I do think those look like streamers but I have a really hard time sexing non bearded silkies. Their crests seem less poofy to me in general if that makes sense? Maybe someone more familiar with the non bearded ones can chime in?
