Oh they are so beautiful!!! Whatever you're doing you're doing right I hatched 2 blue cream. My hatch actually wasn't very great, 9/16 shipped eggs that went into lockdown. But Im very happy with the chicks

Oh she's perfectly lovely! I have a blue cream egg zipping now! I can hardly stand it!!!!

Yea I've heard you mention how extensively you record keep. I often think about it when I manage to write something (anything) in my hatching journal! :gig The eggs in my incubator are on day 19 starting tonight. :) so I should have some babies soon. I've hatched out lots from my own girls but...

Oh I can't wait to watch those chicks grow up! They are lovely. All the self blue I've hatched have had racing stripes. But I'm really loving yours. I can just imagine the excitement watching those hatch from a partridge pairing. My porcelain cockerel (silkie from Sheri Minkher eggs) isn't...

Sounds like you lost alot to predators last year? Was it all at once? I'm so sorry, I imagine that it would be devastating. Looks like you put alot of time and thought and money into your breeding. I'm glad you're getting more boys growing out and I must say most of the ones I've seen pictures...

He is incredible. A very gorgeous roo! And you have some serious breeding going on. There must be a pretty big set up at your place. I've only started to think about and design my breeding pens which I really won't need until next spring/summer. It's exciting tho, thinking about all these...

So, these chicks are obviously not from the BRIR combo right? You have a silkie paint that just kinda gets around? I have quite a few splash, 1 is a tri colored sizzle I really like. Im thinking its a roo but nothing definite yet. Im gonna let him breed my porcelain and lavender girls just to...

I really like the colors and combos youre getting! What fun! Can I ask tho, what is BRIR? Edited to add: any new pics of the baby? I don't think I've seen a blue paint. That would be incredibly cute. And lavender splash! Wow. Sounds gorgeous.

I love this. How exciting to have a clear goal in mind. It's inspiring. I can't wait to see pictures of your process in action! Those chicks are going to do very well!

Thank you again. Im in Oklahoma so need to wait until the weather cools down some before buying shipped eggs. But as soon as it does I am ready

Thank you, thats very nice of you. I noticed her last listing was pretty old.

Maybe I should join Facebook! Is that the best way to order her eggs?

I have a lavender silkie pullet with the same "fret" marks. I always wondered what they were called. I really like them! Could that be what my chick has? I'll have to look again. I think your pullet is beautiful but know too little to give an opinion. That being said I really love the hen on...

So with partridge silkies when do the boys lose their penciling? And what would you call the color of the little chick I posted a few days ago? Maybe I should ask these questions on the partridge thread since he's not actually a porcelain :hide

Wow that boy you hatched is incredible. I'm truly inspired by all these pictures. I've been reading everything I can get my hands on trying to get a good starting point. I've decided when the temperatures cool down I will buy catdance eggs. Is it possible to request eggs from the porcelain pens...

Thank you for that! :) So, based on that any penciling=not porcelain? And doesn't really have anything to do with gender? Likely my chick is a partridge? Sorry if I'm way off here. I read through it twice and just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly.

So just to clarify, do porcelain silkie boys have penciling on their feathers?

Im not sure if I plan on showing. I think I probably should but Im super scared of chicken diseases. But Im sure theres some kind of testing right? Im trying to get to the point where I can maintain a closed flock after getting my initial chicks/chickens. After that I will only get fertilized...

@MumsyII Your catdance rooster was incredible. I just keep looking at him and thinking "thats what I want" I hope you get a good boy from him. Im so sorry you lost him. He really was something special.

Ok. Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions and offer honest feedback. I'll be getting more porcelain chicks soon but they won't be ready to breed for quite awhile. But I do have the 1 pullet and possibly getting another adult girl in a few weeks. All that said its good to get an...
