Silkie Cross? Gender?

[lorenevelyn]

Hello! I bought a chicken from a pet shop today and they didn't know much about it. Can anyone give me an opinion on whether they think it's a Silkie cross or something else? And the gender? I am also wondering if it will lay eggs and what colour the eggs usually are.

We have also been looking for a cream legbar, a Maran and possibly a green egg layer. Would these live well together?

Thanks for any help!

Do you have any idea of it's age? To me it looks like a Silkie cross pullet. In my experience, Marans and Cream Legbars are fairly aggressive and Silkies are mild mannered so it isn't the best mix of breeds, but as long as they have room to roam and plenty of enrichment they should be okay, although every bird is an individual.

No idea of age or anything!
