Paint silkie or spash

Paint silkie or spash. I added a new rooster to my flock it's a red silkie but I'm getting all kinds of colors he has a mix of color of hens.

This one actually looks like a partridge, though a very light one. Paint will have more irregular black flecks and splash will look more silvery white at hatch.

The chick isn't paint or Splash. It's no surprise you're getting all kinds of colors when you're crossing all kinds of colors.

Yeah I mainly breed buff silkies. But I started a Heinz 57 Coop to give people more color options

If you really want to breed paints, you should get from a reputable breeder. You need dominant white in the mix to create them, which is not common in silkies. @LynnaePB breeds them.

I been breeding Buff silkies for 5 years. I think I have the best Buff silkies around but that just my opinion.

No one around me have paints. Allso finding good quality bearded silkies is hard to find. I have about given up. I been disappointed ever time. FYI never order silkies from a hatcheries worst quality I ever seen.
