does anyone know what color Silkie this chick will be?

I would guess something close to a partridge silkie. Not entirely sure though.....

Help! She seems strong but obviously has 2 issues. This is the first I've ever hatched with problems.

Nice!!! What type

I'm not sure, I just got them a couple of weeks ago. I am guessing these tan are coturnix but I'm not sure what the others are or if they are coturnix also.

Final Hatch count: 33 all taking turns sleeping and peeping now

Great! Congratulations!

Final hatch count: 2 out of 20

The rest were fully developed, but they got shrink wrapped somehow and couldn't hatch.

Sorry. What was your humidity level at?

All 11 that made it to lockdown are hatched and hyper!

Congratulations!

Day 21 here. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. No signs of life......

Thanks! My daughter loves this chick but I had no idea what color it is. This is my first time hatching Silkie chicks and I already love them.

The abdomen looks pretty normal. That's where the yolk sac absorbed, it will close up in a few more hours. The foot may just need another day to straighten out. If not, you can splint it with band-aids.

Partridge.
