A few pictures of my lavender boy. I had two boys that were basically identical twins (they came from hatching eggs from the same breeder.) But I rehomed the second boy last week. So these babies will be the offspring of those two boys. Probably actually more from the boy that I no longer have, as he was the more dominant one. But here are pictures of the remaining boy, Gumdrop.

Thank you! Definitely not a perfect SOP boy, but I am happy to have him because lavender silkies are just ridiculously hard to get ahold of. I don’t know if he has split wing or just loose wings. His brother’s wings looked the same. The silkie hen that has eggs in the incubator has nice, tight wings though, so I hope she can improve upon that.
