I want to add a black silkie rooster to my flock of lavenders.
What do I need to look for in a black silkie? Would a black from a blue, black splash or a black from a paint line be the same as a bird from a black line? How would I know the difference?
Question about chick color. I have a pen with lavender and Buff siklies. I know lavenders will have yellowish chicks and the calculator says lavender and Buff will be black (which I got 1 of both) but can anyone explain the other chicks that are gray and gray with a little buff leakage?
I have a pen with Lavender (self blue) silkies and Buff silkies. I can't find any information on what color the first generation chicks will be. Can someone help me out on this?
