Good news! It’s nearly month 5, B laid her first white fairy egg today. A has been crowing and mounting. So I guess gray shanks count as a female marker as well!
 
I purchased 6 chick's that were suppose to be white leghorns, all pullets. 2 of them are showing they are silkie. They have feathers on lower legs and partially on the toes which they only have 4 of. The head is also silkie, rest of body is not, look like leghorn but with small areas of black. Chick's purchased on March 30.

I know this is an old post, but I have some silkie x leghorn chicks. This post is helpful. Did any of your chicks have spots of melanin on their legs?
