I got some showgirl eggs from Burntumber. (I think that's how her name is on here.) Out of 24 eggs, 12 hatched, I have 11 left.

I had these 3 dark ones. The darkest one is the blackest silkie I have ever seen, REALLY black skin. I'm hoping she'll grow up to be a beautiful, really black hen.

The other two I'm hoping for a really light silver.

Edited to say: Any input on coloring (I know pictures are hard to tell for accuracy), etc. is always appreciated!

I love them! I've been trying to decide between silkies and showgirls. Now if you could get a picture of them with little woolen scarves, I'd be sold.
 
Judging by the appearance of the light ones, I am thinking they are mixed colors. They are to smutty to be white, but not dark enough to be blue, and I highly doubt they are lavender showgirls.

Possibly splash?

She mentioned that she was trying to get into a dark splash. I think she said a black splash or blue splash.

I thought that splashes were usually judged higher if they were lighter (as in white with spots).
