just wondering if anyone out there has non silkie silkies? i got my first last year and was hooked ever since. and m curious how they are 'made'
are they crossed with another breed then bred back to silkies or something else?
i have a few myself (no idea what caused them though? so would like to learn more) they seem like silkies in every way apart from having normal feathers) but....all bar one of mine seem to come out with leakage round the neck...how do i go about breeding this out?
i have 2 black pullets (one with silver leakage one with gold leakage)
1 white roo with red and black leakage
1 pure white pullet
only the pure white pullet and black red leakage has leg feathering though.....
