Is this a partridge silkie ?

[MacandT]

Hi everyone, first post here on byc!

When we bought this silkie the seller told us she was partridge colored. After looking at other silkies online and studying her coloring she seems to be a non standard color, like a mix between buff and partridge. She looks really light colored to me. I'm just curious if her coloring is actually partridge. Thanks a bunch!

Thanks but I know what a partridge silkie hen looks like without searching it up.

This is considered partridge coloring for Silkies, yes? Just checking!

She doesn't look partridge to me.

The Silkie in the original post actually looks like blue partridge to me.

Sure does! Thankyou. I was looking at a another post titled "silkie partridge variances within variety" and it talks about a light partidge that's one year (second bird down). My bird looks really close to that light partridge. But I also definitely see the blue now https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/silkie-partridge-variances-within-the-variety.47336/

I have a blue partridge, too. Yours actually does look a lot like her!

Looks like a Partridge, with maybe a little buff mixed in. Also,

@cherrynberry, would you post a pic of a bird of any breed that has partridge markings, please? I think most of my EE are partridge marked but I don't really know for sure. Thanks.

These are the best photos I can find for now. I have 5 welsummers. They are red partridge I believe.
