Silkie Cross Breeds

[Prudence and Pearl]

So we just hatched a new chick last night that is a cross between a white silkie mom and a rooster we bought at a flea market as a chick, so im not to sure what he really is. So what i was wondering if what can i expect this chick to grow up to look like, does anyone have any pictures of their silkie cross breads so i can have some sort of idea. Thanks so much!!

Heres some pics of the new baby

My silkie x polish hen was the frendliest hen ever, and my silkie x cochin has a lovely nature, she mothers all the young chickens that get added to my flock

Here is my little Silkie x either Banty Polish or Banty Cochin. I am documenting her weekly on my page. Just posted this one, at about 9 weeks old. I just love Silkies and Silkie crosses.

I have Bantum Brahma x Silkie crosses they all have smooth feathers and some have crests but they turned out beautifully and extremely soft.

Here's Hellen. We adopted her from the animal shelter. We don't know what the parents were but we are pretty sure one was a silkie since she has five toes.

Production Red over White Bearded Silkie, which in this case seemed to create sex-linked yellow-downed cockerel chicks and black/brown-downed pullet chicks. Her sister was bearded but I never did get any pictures of her before the fox took her.

What are the last two roos mixed with?? They're beautiful!

Here's some pictures I took of them, the first one is the mother and the white silkie is the father, he is super protective of the hens and he even helped in raising the chicks feeding them and taking them back to the hen when they got lost, people say to not to let a rooster with baby chicks but he loves feeding them and the hens and even feeds his sons that are pretty much fully grown, the Partridge Silkies are from the same perents, it seems like the girls end up with silkie feathers and the boys have smooth oily feathers, I was super happy about that because I like colourful roosters and silkie hens, they seem to have the best personalitys from each of the perents too, the only reason I did this mix is because I had 2 white Silkies and they are brother and sister so I couldn't breed them together haha
