Color on silkies:

[Rachelj07]

Hey all I have hatched out these two chicks, they are silkies, but I can't figure out what color they are, can you please help!? The first is a grayish, blueish, blackish coloring, is it a blue? The mom is either a black or white and the dad is a partridge. The other one the parents are the same only it's black and white...similar to a partridge expect instead of being brownish with black it's white with black.

both will be partridge patterned but colors will differ from grey to partrigde

Thank you! Now is that just the bottom picture? Is the top on also a partridge? There is no pattern on the top pictured birds though.

The topped pictured bird is a more grey partridge i believe. you can still see the color partern but it doesn`t have the stripes is all
