Chocolate Silkie breeding
Silkies come in 4 different feather types. Silkie, satin, sizzle and frizzle. If those birds are full silkie they would be considered satin and sizzle feathered. Do they have black skin or 5 toes on each foot. Those would determine if they are purebred.- FarmGirl01

How do you seperate broodies?
I will separate her while she still has eggs. Once the babies hatch I re introduce her with the flock. Never had any issues- FarmGirl01

How do you seperate broodies?
I’m a silkie breeder and I will say. Once a hen thinks she has eggs in a certain box she won’t leave it. Best thing to do is have her completely separate from the box she wants to be in. If you have another separate box use it for the birds that are laying. Put a golf ball or any round object in...- FarmGirl01

Silkie chick color question
Looks a little dark and solid to be a silver partridge. Do you have pics of the parents?- FarmGirl01

Silkie chick color question
To me it looks like a black with leakage. Most of my black chicks I have had leakage with had brown showing through instead of white or a cream color. But still possibly a partridge- FarmGirl01

Good or bad?
I’m confused. The 2 outer toes are supposed to have feathers on them. Is that what you were referring to? I do notice the feather on his 4th toe on the right.- FarmGirl01
