Partridge Silkies - Nothing else

[Rebecca8576]

I know what you mean you almost have to give them away , I had 10 all together six are hens and four are roosters,I sold one but have three more to sale. I think if I keep all the hens they'll just be pets or maybe I'll have them sit on some eggs for me. they are a mix color but there still so cute.

beautiful, is it a hen? how old? mine in a hen and is 8 weeks, I wish I had a rooster the same color to breed with next year. I love that color. all I have are three of her brothers that are the same color as the one in the first picture. can you breed brother and sister , I don't think it would be a good idea. do you.

Yes it is a pullet. You can breed back for 1 generation but that is all that is suggested, after that you get real weak genetics. I just bought a silver roo, he will be arriving from Oregone on Monday. If you can hang on I should have some chicks and eggs soon. Here is his picture

I have no idea yet. I guess I need to start thinking about that. See his white/silver on his collar, Then the darker on cushion and crest? Different that a splash or blue
