BlueTheBrahma’s thread!

Some pictures showing the difference in shade between the two silkies. I’m not sure if Desmond is a pale blue, dark splash or lavender, I guess I’ll have to see.

While I love the lavender colour I’m hoping for a blue so I can take him/her to the winter Poultry shows. Talulah has a single comb so isn’t show quality. It’s an annoying recessive trait in my silkies and must have been introduced when the lavender gene was bred in before I got them. If Talulah’s a pullet I might try to sell her off with Sparrow, the blue cockerel from last year, who also has a single comb.

I am not a silkie person, but they are damn adorable
