Did your pipped egg hatch? Any other hatches?
Three more eggs hatched here during the night! I have 7 babies total. I candled the remaining eggs when I got home - three are definitely duds, the fourth, I'm not sure about. No movement and no peeps. I may wait until tomorrow.
Yes mine are silkies - blue, black and splash. My first hatch I had splash and white - the white ones are creamy colored, and the splash are a greyish white - the splash colors don't come in until they start feathering. This hatch I think I have 3 blacks, a couple splash, and maybe a blue - two of the splashes are darker than my first splashes, so I guess I"ll just have to wait and see what I get! I'm going to do some reading about the B/B/S genetics.
You are probably right about the Partridge, and Splash - I don't know what HT stands for but it's probably white.
