Oh, good to know about the “red”... I was wondering to myself out there looking at all of them.. going... she isn’t as light as my BOrp and not as dark as my RIR...??Good catch Colt, I didn't read that part about her coloring being buff and agree that she is red. She is chestnut red like a New Hampshire Red rather than Mahogany red like your Rhode Island Red, WhoDat.
Have you seen the frizzle cockerel try to mate the silkie hen? I had a silver pencilled bantam cochin cockerel jump on his silkie "mom" and mate with her when he was only a month old. He calmed down after a while but it was annoying to see him do that. I wonder if that might be why she doesn't want him around.
And my little roo is not a frizzle.. we thought the white one was going to be but she turned out flat... anyway, I think she is just trying to make them go on their own.. he hasn’t tried any shenanigans yet.. she mostly pecks at the two black ones.. one is a boy and one is a girl
