Showgirls come in all different colors. There are White, Blue, Black, Red , Buff, Partridge, Splashed.
They should have a full crest (FULL HEAD OF FEATHERS).
You do not want to breed 2 showgirls together, They should be bred 1 showgirl to 1 silkie.
If they are bred the wrong way the chicks will come out with less feathers on the neck and chest, and you do not want this.

And yes even a male is called a showgirl even though it is a male. There is sometimes confusion on that term.
