Hello everyone

[Appalassa]

Hello everyone! My name is Alice I live in London I have one cockerel which is with me since May unfortunately we lost his sister due to fox attack. My boy was sold to me as a Silkie but he is definitely mixed with other chicken. I would appreciate if you guys could help me identify my boy. I recently have two new additions to my family and I don’t have idea what breed they are. I will be really grateful for your help. On top of my little backyard chicken hotel I have tow dogs and a tortoise.

Hello! Welcome to BYC!! Looks like a sillkie cross, hard telling what with. He's very handsome!

Hello, Alice, and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
He's definitely a Silkie mix but it's nearly impossible to tell what the other parent was. Who cares?! He's adorable!
I'm sorry you lost his sister to a fox.

Thank you so much. My boy is with me since he was a day old but he is not a pure Silkie so if you have any ideas what “monster” is currently enjoying my back yard I would appreciate advice. I’m also not sure about the breed of two small hens which my friend got for me today they came with a tag “miniature chickens”

Thank you very much and he is so sweet when he is not bossing the dogs around the house our German Shepherd is afraid of him.
