IM CRYING!!!

I heard caramel is similar to a cinnamon, but has white basing on the feathers that end in red. I normally either keep a pair, male and female, or bachelor pads of all males, barring a few troublemakers who are separated into their own enclosures due to picking and fighting, even in a larger pen... I guess those ones are just jerks.

Though in that pen with the 3 females and one male, I wanted more cinnamons and so I lumped them all together with the silver tux hen in there too just in-case the cinnamon male carried the tux gene also... The females all got along, but were unsure of the young male cinnamon I plopped in at first, but now flock to him when he tidbits.

Great! I was hoping that you did not have 2 males and 3 females in one cage! (it looked like it) also caramel is not a reconised color. some people just make things up and say they are colors

I have a silkie that wants to hatch an empty nest some reason and refuses to break, so when the others are outside I put her out and close the door so she can't get back on the nest and starts acting like a normal chicken, eating, drinking and dustbathing as normal until I open the door, then she tries to zoom back into the nestbox to try and hatch air again. Silkies.

put some fertile eggs under her, and let her hatch chicks. then shell stop for a little bit

I did think the dark cinnamon hen was a male and she was in another enclosure with males, being the only female in there with FIVE males, surprisingly they didn't try to kill each-other or seemed to harass her, but... Then she laid an egg. So I knew for sure that the dark cinnamon was a she.

Even after that, the guys in the cage were pretty chill... No fighting, no gang-mating or anything... To be honest I think her looks threw them off and they thought she was another male too. I soon took her out and had her with the pale cinnamon and the tuxedo hen and introduced the cinnamon male.

I would if we had the room for more chickens, right now we have 12 of them and unlike with the button quail, no-one in my area is interested in buying my silkies.

Yup. Started with just 2 and Hen-Hen hatched the rest.
