Lavender Orpington x Silkie Cross

[Cozoya]

Hi! I just searched Orpington and silkie cross and your thread popped up. My hen looks so similar to yours and the rooster similar too!! Our hen, Ivy, just had chicks that look the same!! Do you have any pics of what the chicks look like now? Im so curious

Hi, all! I’m new to BYC. I wanted to share a story of a fun cross with my sweet chickens, and see if anyone else has tried this cross as well
This is our beautiful Lavender Orpington Hen:

And our handsome Silkie rooster (I believe his color is Silver Berchum):

And this is their baby, who is nearly 4 weeks old. I thought it was a full Silkie, until I realized it only has four toes, and no head puff so far, though lots of leg feathering. I am really excited to see how this baby matures, so far it’s a very pretty, active, sweet little bird!

Has anyone else ever tried this cross?
Have a good day everyone, and God bless!

I currently have barrock, lavender orpington and silkie hens with silkie and lavender orpington roos.. my babies look just like that .. most have all the silkie features but the feathering is hard not silkie
