A couple of my 2 month old silkies are starting to get brown feathers. They were fully grey (to my knowledge) until a couple weeks ago. It seems like every time I look at them more brown is coming through. Any idea on coloring?

The 8th chick looks like a darker blue to me but the 5th I’m 99% sure is black. Her wing feathers are really dark

I had a feeling! I’m so excited. Definitely keeping him/her for breeding :)

Can’t wait to find out who these cuties wi end up being :)

I’m fairly certain my chicks #1 and #7 are blue splash. They look completely different than #4 to me - who is more white with large black spots. It’s so hard to tell!

Silkie Chick #4 is looking like a paint? What do you think?! Fingers crossed

The gal I got the eggs from has nearly every color silkie! To me they look like #1,#4,#7 splash, #2 self blue/lavender, #6 blue, #5 is definitely black, #3 I’m unsure of-he has lavender/grey colored wings coming in but now I’m seeing some dark bits, and #8 is a really dark grey but lighter than...

I was just concerned since the other 7 silkies I hatched aren’t doing it! He seems like a super healthy happy chick though. I’ll try not to worry! Thank you again

Thank you for the reply! I’m trying not to worry, but of course I love them all and want the best for them. 🥰

I could not get the video to attach. First photo is the face normal and second face puffed up with breath

Perfect in every other way. Biggest chick, eating/drinking.

I know this is an old thread but any new information? I see one of my 12 day old silkie chicks breathing like this. Thank you

Hi everyone! Thanks for your help. This is my first time hatching silkie chicks and wanted some guesses on adult colors. I have some idea but am curious on what you all think! These guys hatched 01/28/21 and are 10 days old in these photos. You’re the best! Happy guessing :)

Her and our mottled roo together

That’s definitely the closest coloring I’ve seen! Thank you :)

Our rooster is a Mottled Orpington from the same breeder. That’s what we think too

Hello! We got this cutie June 2020 and have only a small clue on what she could be. Would love your help and guesses! The breeder we got her from had no idea what she was so we had to bring her home with us as our “Mystery Chick”. From what we are aware of, the breeder has Mottled Orpington's...

Thank you! We love our rooster, Sweetpea. He’s a gentle giant.

Hello! I’m Jen. My fiancé and I just started raising chickens this year after the pandemic egg shortage we experienced here. We have a good mix of blueberry loving goblins out in our backyard now - 9 to be exact but I’m sure more will be joining in the near future! Chicken math, right? I feel...
