Hi,
We got this girl from a local breeder, the breeder got some eggs from somewhere else for her breeding program and this little tornado feathered one poped out. I think Frizzle Silkie but not 100%, 6 months old. We were there getting our pure bred silkies anyways and she offered us this one, and we thought she was cute for our little backyard flock. We have bought silkies from this breeder before and they have always been correctly sexed and lovely feathers and temperaments.
i am a little concerned she may be a he, she walks around with her Chest Way out! They all kind of do, but she really has her head back and her chest puffed out, she has no comb, in fact is is smaller than my 18 month old hens combs. But she does look like she is getting little waddles below her beak. If she is crossed with a frizzle could this be the reason she has little waddles? My other silkies have no waddles at all.
no crowing and no laying yet. She is approx 6 months old.
Any insight would be helpful!
