Heres a pic of my roo "Fancy Pants"....apparently he thinks i'm one of his hens.....he walks around and around me, finds me snacks on the ground, and beats up any other roo that comes near me. lol

What do you all think of his colors? Not sure what is considered SQ for a partridge silkie.

People show many different colorations of Silkie roos. His color is pretty typical. You should read the SOP for partridge Silkies and decide from there whether to show him or not. The SOP calls for a black chest, but that seems to be relatively hard to come by. His under fluff is supposed to be black and his seems almost blue. Here is a link to the SOP so that you can study it. If you can, go to poultry shows and see other partridge Silkies that people are exhibiting (I wish that I had that opportunity).

That's awesome... It's funny how almost all of my boys have names and very few of the girls do.
