Fluffy silkie bumbums

[Hennyfromdblock]

Hi everyone! Thought it would be fun to guess the gender and colors they’ll turn out to be. Out of the 5 silkie / silkie mixes i have , only one has 4 toes but has feathering on legs. I believe out of the 5 only 2 are silkies and the rest are mix. The silkies are buff roo over blue hen. And the mixes are white roo over (non silkie) black hens. I tried leaving 2 of each hens eggs but of the 8 I left only 5 hatched. The 2 black hens are pictured just for reference. Also if anyone has had a similar hatch your stories and pictures and very much welcomed.
Here’s the crew, only 2-3 days old The ones I believe to be full silkie are blue and buff. And gender I say all girls cause I want all girls. But have heard that some red coloring could possibly be a male trait. Not sure . Comment your guesses!

Only baby with 4 toes

Your babies are adorable!
Way too young to even hazard a gender guess at this point. The red you’re talking about in the wing feathers of some males, comes in much later when the chicks are probably closer to 6 to 8 weeks of age if not older.
All your silkie mixes, if only one parent was a silkie or part silkie and the other was a standard feathered breed, will have smooth feathers, so you’ll be able to tell when they are approximately a week old, give or take, by their wings if they are pure silkie or mixed.
Color wise looks like you have a Partridge, a blue and a buff as well as some mixed colored babies.
