    Silkie porcelain/splash project. This is what I've come up with.

    Let me preface this by saying I tried in vain to find a porcelain splash silkie (for lack of a better label) on the web with no success. I found plenty on porcelain, isabel, lavender gene, and splash, but no information when you cross them. Recently I put one of my one year old hens with the...

    Silkie Chicken color question

    I started asking around random places on the web just to see what kind of feedback I can get. One thing that was pointed out was porcelain is still a test color and variations of coloring is expected when your breeding them. So, while she is the only one so far with that coloring - which still...

    Silkie Chicken color question

    So I have an interesting looking hen and I am uncertain of her color. Normally I would say she is a porcelain, but the grey and cream tones are mixed like a paint or calico. I haven't had another porcelain look like this, so I am not sure if its a porcelain or something else. Any help would be...

    Baby Fantail leg injury. Possible dislocation - video attached hoping someone can help.

    Ebay hatched eggs - Surprise! Not what was advertised - need some help identifying the mutant chick

I am going to take them up to Ripley to sell next weekend so at least I can tell the prospective owners what they...

    Ebay hatched eggs - Surprise! Not what was advertised - need some help identifying the mutant chick

    Thanks for the help. I'll look into Sultans. Unfortunately after examining the group again last night I have another chick that has a different looking head. Also they are quite large for their age. I am pretty certain that it was a 50/50 cross because of the mix of traits and how they are...

    Ebay hatched eggs - Surprise! Not what was advertised - need some help identifying the mutant chick

    Playing the eBay gamble I yet again hatched some eggs. They were from a different vendor than I have used in the past and were advertised as blue black splash silkies. Well the eggs hatched and I noticed from the start one chick in particular didn't look like the others. Its obviously a cross -...
