I thought they were all dead for sure but then found one alive under the porch, then two more, then another later in the day. Somehow the meanest rooster and a few others survived. I’m...

    Is this albino?

    Parents are pure silkies (yes I’m positive) and I hatched several clutches but I’ve never seen one like this. This little girl/guy is not just white, splash or paint, he/she is ALL white - skin, comb, feet. The feathers are so bright white that they look iridescent.

    My three broody silkie hens hatched a clutch of about 9 babies last weekend. The babies have been in the coop until today when three of them were in the run with the hens and Roo dad (it’s about 85 degrees here.) I got home from work and noticed one of the babies outside the run fence so I...
