[horseyjess]

Please help. Just hatched 5 Silkies in a batch of other eggsin bator. One I think I will have to cull

. This other one has color like no silkie chick I have seen. Both my girls are aguing over whos chick this ONE will be. Forget about the other 24 Hatchlings lol,,

Here is question #2

I am going to say black here

Adorable Partridge babies!

Partridge, unless you have some crazy mixed color going on there

 

[Minniechickmama]

i am sure they are all partridge. Why are you thinking you will cull?

 

[horseyjess]

I had one that I thought I would have to cull.. I didnt have to cull she/he didnt make it. It was really tiny and had way funky legs here are pics of it

 

[Minniechickmama]

yup, I guess that is a moot point asking then. I hate when that happens.

If they are from a mixed color pen, all bets are off.

Agreed! I keep a mixed color pen and what color they are at babies is NO where near what color they turn out to be.
