Help with Silkie color

[Melissa Rose]

Hi

I have two little silkies who are now fluffy enough to see their colors. One I believe is a partridge I was told the other is perhaps a Buff/ Or do the random spots make it something else? Thank You for any help with this

Could it be a buff/partridge mixed colouring?

These were unmarked eggs so are a surprise

I fell head over heels in loooovvveee

Their little toe bones are just so precious

the darker chick will probably be partridge, the other - no idea.

The thing is many chicks will change ALOT as they color out. I have had partridge chicks turn out to be BLUE as they feathered in, so you really never know.

Partridge, and Buff. Guessing by the black/gray in the buffs down it will probably be a smutty buff.

I've had really red/orange partridge type chicks hatch out this color. But if they were mystery eggs, they could possibly be from a mixed color flock, so you never know what it will turn out to look like. - lol the fun of babies!

I used to have Red Silkies, and the chicks looked similar to your lighter chick; so it may be a red or a buff?
