I just got a silkie roo and a hen and the rooster has like redish head and neck feathers kinda like what a polish red rooster would have, just wonder if it is a black rooster and hen if they should have any red on them. Thanks

I think the silkie feathers are a recessive gene, meaning if they are mixed they most likely won't have the silkie feathers. Not sure though, they could just be mixed colors?
