Thanks storminstaffs, I was just sitting here drinking coffee & looking at your beautiful birds. Then......I came across

the name "rubberhead".

I spit coffee on my moniter, & had to get out the paper towels. LOVE the name, & I think there's gonna be a "rubberhead II" here in the states!

Love the pictures of the birds, and the name is brilliant.

Hiya!

Well, I am English ( living in France now) and I breed Silkies here - yours looks like a female to me - normally the females don't have wattles which incidentally are blue... as are the flesh and bones.

I hope you have a female if you want to breed - they are sooooo broody and friendly - even my male Silkies are very friendly...

GOOD LUCK WITH WHATEVER IT IS....!!! Silkies are worth more than their weight in gold - mine have beards - must teach my girls to shave!!!
