I purchased three fertile eggs from a swap for my broody silkie. One was from a box of buff penciled seabright hens and rooster. Two were a crap shoot, mom was a black banty and dad was a colorful banty. Two hatched. Richard must be from the box of seabrights. He is buff, gray and black, but does not have the downward wings or upturned tail. I'm sure he is a rooster. Hyacinth is black with all the features of a seabright. Both are tiny and easy to handle.
e they? They are twelve weeks old in the pictures. Any one have ideas about breed or gender?
