    Silkie color update

    So this little one is 2 weeks and has started to get some wing feathers. Would this be a blue splash? Older pics to see what she looked like at a day old.

    Prolapse of some kind?

    Can anyone offer guidance on this? This is a young (rooster I thought) Silkie. I took a paper towel and gently pressed and it popped right back in. The silkie doesn’t seem to be bothered at all.

    Balding around eyes?

    I have a 2 1/2 month old silkie that looks like she is loosing feathers around her eyes? I haven’t seen any evidence of mites on her and she is with four others that are fine and no feat their loss. The eye area doesn’t look irritate or red at all. Any advice?
