I'm new to silkies and I'm sorting through some of my young roos. I am interested in what some of the experts have to say about them.

These boys are 4.5 months old. I managed to get this one in a good pose. But I was wondering if he lacked in foot feathering. I can try to get toe pics tomorrow if anyone wants them. He does have 5 toes, but the spacing between the 4th and 5th toe could be better (in my inexperienced opinion).

This boy is larger than the other, and he has a white toenail on each foot. He seems to have better foot feathering. Same opinion on toe spacing for 4th and 5th toes.

I was also wondering about the comb on this boy. Is it too red? I think he may be a splash, with maybe lavender.

for the first bird as long as his three outside toes have some feathers he is fine..... he looks pretty nice to me other wise

as for the toe spacing as long as the two toes are separated than its not a disqualification.
