I have a question for you breeders. If a silkie has black skin, silkie feathering, five toes, but a very small RED comb what are they crossed with? I know silkies standard is a mulberry or almost black comb. So where would the red comb come in? Does that mean they are crossed some where along the lines? I've been trying to find this answer and I can't find it. I bought two silkie babies that ended up with red combs unlike my other black or mulberry combed silkies. They look like a silkie is every other aspect however with the small red comb I suspect a cross breeding along the lines. They are quite lovely except for the red comb. I'm wondering what they were crossed with? They are both buffs. I know it's NOT the standard like my other silkies. Does the red comb confirm my suspicion that they were a cross breed some where along the lines? Thanks for your help.
