Lavender silkies

[BuffManM]

Hi Guys. Is there anybody out there who knows if the colour of my silkies are lavender or blue?

Also if they are lavender if I breed them together will I get lavender offspring?

thankyou

They look lavender to me.

They are lavender. Lavender does breed true, so you will get lavender chicks if you breed them.

Lavender will breed lavender if bred together.
It's a recessive gene that needs two copies to show.

They are procelain/isabella/isabel/blue cream - it's lavender with partridge, and it comes out mostly lavender with some cream in there - that's what it looks to be to me

(porcelain, blue cream, isabel, and isabella all mean the same thing -- they have 2 lavender genes and also partridge or related gene to throw the cream)
