Chocolate Silkie Rooster!

[ChickenChik]

A few weeks ago we went to our breeder friends to get a couple black silkies and we picked up this chocolate silkie. I have never seen one before and can't find anyone else that does! I would like to find him a hen somewhere but noone has ANY! Anyway...here is our beautiful man! I tell my husband he has pretty hair than I do!

That roo is seriously beautiful! I'm not a big fan of silkies, but if I could get some with that coloring, I would seriously consider it!

Congrats on him!

He is a very nice looking bird..

But he is not pure silkie..

Silkies have black skin, including wattles and comb.. And I believe they do not have white ear lobes..
He is not pure, but he is so good looking and unusual though..

Yeah we knew that he wasn't pure bred but definately original!

Well I wouldnt have passed him up..

See if your breeder friend has any idea what mix he is. Maybe that way you can find a mate for him.. Maybe create your own breed. He is defiently different looking.. I like his comb..

Hope my other post didnt affend you any..
He really is a nice bird..

Oh definitely no offense taken!

That is a pretty bird and you need to pass on those genes.... and improve upon them.
