Hey, it could be you!

Jeez... I wouldnt know where to begin! My knowledge is limited and chicken genetics confuse me so! I may look into it though.. Just for a little fun

Pure speculation, but looks like a blue partridge... I am seeing a lot of Partridge Silkies lately... I don't know if that would be the right terminology (blue partridge) for that particular color... I bet it is a rooster, though. I have an EE rooster that is that color, pale blue with brown wing spots that color.

Speaking of silkies, do you think my little one is part silkie? If so, do you think it’s possible to tell what sex s/he is?
