    What color will this silkie chick be?

    You may have seen a few days ago someone posted these two for rehoming saying they wouldn’t leave the hen house and didn’t play outside. The pic wasn’t clear and I stupidly thought they were girls. She told me they’re eight months old and haven’t crowed. I made the 130 mile roundtrip and got...
