    Calico/millie silkie rooster

    I have been looking for a calico frizzle silkie roo for awhile. I have the opportunity to get one of these guys, but I'm not sure if they would be considered calico. What do you think?

    What color is my satin?

    How interesting! Genetics can be so confusing. I had no idea thats what paints were. I thought dominant white got rid of all blacks

    What color is my satin?

    I hatched out 4 satins at the end of March and one of the pullets is absolutely beautiful. I've been researching and trying to figure out what color she would be considered, but I've not had any luck. I posted a breeding question awhile back and one user called her a 'silver calico.' I've tried...

    What is wrong here? Fowl pox?

    I noticed last week what I thought was a peck wound on this girl, but I don't think thats the case now. I'm afraid it could be Fowl pox and I have no idea what to do. I have young chickens in a coop nearby and I'm terrified they'll get it too if that's what this is.

    Silkie and satin color pairing outcomes

    Thank you so much for the information! Roo 1 has a couple of white feathers on his feet, but I'm not sure if that has anything to do with a mottling gene. I'd never heard of a silver millie fleur. Her color had me stumped since shes absolutely beautiful, and I've never seen anything like it...

    Silkie and satin color pairing outcomes

    I have a batch of silkies and satins that came from a breeders "fun pen." Next year I plan to pair some of them just for fun. They're not to the standard of perfection, I know, I just like fun colors. My plans as of right now are: Roo1 to hens 1, 2, and 3 And Roo 2 to hen 4 I'm pretty sure...

    Calico silkie genetics

    I know, they are satins. I just have a habit of calling them silkies whether they are silked or satin.

    This is the partridge that I know for sure is a rooster that I'm going to use. I have 2 more partridge that I think are hens, but only time will tell. They are a much better quality than this one. I added a picture of the calico hen aswell

    3 silkies, hen or roo

    Hello all, I ordered a batch of chicks back at the end of September last year. In that batch I ordered 3 cuckoo silkie hens that were gauranteed hens, or I'd get a refund. One of the chicks ended up being the wrong color and I was given a refund for it already. Since they're about the age...
