I would say sort of but not sure the white is weird on it but a weird in a good way so I do recomend breeding it and making more because it's awesome but I'll look into it

well I looked into it and calico is grey with red leaking through so I guess you could breed a grey to a red or splash to a red or instead of red you could probably replace it with buff instead of red

Would this hen be considered partridge, or just a blue silkie with gold leakage? The friend I got the eggs from said the rooster was a splash with yellowish gold leakage and the hens laying the eggs would've been either black or blue, but as she's gotten older she's looking more partridge. Out of the other five silkies that hatched, only one had some leakage (splash with yellow/gold) but is it possible the father of this hen had some partridge in him or something?
