    What does this look like to you ××pics××

    Not the best quality, I know. My silkie looks like it has light yellowish crud on her feet and up her legs. I thought leg mites but her scales aren't really raised at all. It's the worst on the bottom of its feet.

    amerucana or ee?

    Hi there. I got this pullet this weekend as an amerucana. However due to her colouring I'm thinking ee? She has the beard and Grey/blue legs. . But the brown and Grey colours in her don't seem to match amerucanas. thoughts?
