Partridge Silkies - Nothing else

I need to get new photos of my current birds, but these are some pics of some of the Partridges I had before I had to cut my flock way back, and then lost a few. I am rebuilding my flock now so I am looking for birds like these.

Mozart -


His brother Moses (red partridge) -


A sister -


Mama Moonlite (still have her), she was BOV when I showed her. She has the proper bay colored breast that so many Partridge hens are lacking, and she is as typey as the day is long. :) I really need to get a good current pic of her. My avatar pic is her youngest daughter, which I also still have. She is almost the spitting image of her mama.

Love Mozart. He looks a lot like my avatar Davy. He was so pretty we named him Daisy because we thought he had to be a girl. He had other ideas, lol! Of course my Davy has a hair cut since he's the lead rooster now. So his topknot isn't as pretty as it used to be. But he can now see, very important for freeranging.

Thanks. He was a fav for sure. Even as a chick he stood out as a nice bird. Sweetie too.

This is my current roo, Stetson. He's actually a Blue Wheaten. His tail is not shredded enough, and his comb is a little light, but since he's only like 5th generation back from a Faverolle, I think he looks great. :)

 
I had this chick hatch from a black pair, it's the first chick I got from this pair. Does it mean my black pair is split with something or maybe my hen was with another rooster before I got her maybe? And what color of partridge do you think it could be?


 
It's a grey. It may or may not actually end up looking that way as it matures though. Some chicks like this end up black (or mostly black with silver in the hackles). :)
