I am so new to the different breeds and stuff but I have a lot of different colored Silkies. What makes the bird a partridge? I don't want to appear dumb but I will never find out if I don't asK. lol

Partridge hens are usually dark brown and medium brown colored with a very dark brown to black hat. the roos are usually a deep red in body black on wings and tail with light brown or dark in neck. the hens should have lacing in side feather of back and on out side in black and between the two laces should be brown on silkies you can only see this in there wings.
