    Sex links??

    Hey everyone, I have just recently hatched some chicks. My rooster is a male sizzle and my hens are barred rock. I was told the outcome would be chicks that are sex linked, males would have white spots on the head and females will just be black with no markings. I was planning on selling these...

    Sizzle To Straight Feather Breeding

    Yes, when i say sizzle, my cockerel is a silkie with frizzled feathers. my sizzle is in fact black and the male, meaning this would be the outcome if we were to breed. Thank you so much for this information! It really helped a lot, and i hope to breed as soon as my cockerel is old enough. :)

    Sexing Silkie Chicks!

    the first three are what i was told was a full silkie, the rest of the pictures are what i was told is a sizzle. i've actually been watching videos and looking at pictures of pure silkies at their age, and i'm starting to think it is not a full silkie but i'm still not quite sure.
