I think I have came up with a lemon colored silkie! I have been hatching out lemon colored silkies from my buff pen. They are soooo pretty! I will get some picture in a bit.

Here they are! They look alot like white silkie chicks in the picture because the flash on the camera REALLY dilutes there color. They are really bright lemon colored. I really am not sure what color they will be but they look like little lemons right now. They are coming from one of my buff hens (all the other chicks are buff) . They hen and roo are both buff. The roo is from a breeder and is SQ. The hen is BQ at least but I am not sure what lines she has in her. I am really not sure how I am getting this color. Sonorian what do you think?

I forgot to add that the one in the front (The bigger on in the front is about 1 week and a half.)

Photos, please

What gene are you breeding in to dilute the buff?

Can't wait to see them!

If you are, can you add my name to the list for hatching eggs if you ever sell them?

Wow what cuties...they sure look lemon. I'd work with them if I were you. The trick is if they stay lemon like that as they grow, even if they don't you might be able to breed them to each other to intensify the color.
