I would love to know the color names for my silkies. And the gender, if possible. šŸ™‚ Thanks in advance!

Age of birds?
For gender ID with young silkies, best to show close ups of combs with crests pushed back. Even then can be difficult. Knowing age will help.šŸ˜Š
As far as colors:
Honey is a buff.
Lightning is light grey (light silver partridge).
Smore is a color I have never seen. Looks like mixed color, possibly has a partridge parent anyway.
Marshy is a splash.
Beautiful birds.šŸ„°

Thank you so much! We're smitten, for sure!

They are 10 weeks old, roughly. Will try to get pictures of their combs. Thank you for the color id's!
