I got 2 Showgirls from a breeder in WI she claimed they were "lavenders" but i swear their blues cause of how dark they are. my pullet looks AMAZING i cant believe her quality but her brother needs work, needs better crest, tail, and feet feathering. what color silkies should i breed them too. and what shows could i show them at i was going to show them at the Red Ceder Poultry show oct. 1 in WI but they said crossbreds werent allowed.

He's cute ! Looks like roo to me but I could be wrong. Just the angle of the picture maybe. I have hen showgirls that have that swept back hair doo too !!! If his skin is more redish as he/she matures that is a clue for male.

It's reddening I'm afraid *gags* I can't have any more roo's and I love him.

Awwww What's one more !!!

I have a knack for hatching roosters !!! I have probably 2-1 roos/hens!!!

Considering I can't have them and my total is at um 4....my questionable silkie started mounting my frizzled girl I was like holy moly bat man my silkie roo who was 2 didn't even mount.
