Hi there,
I've got 8 baby silkies (about 1 week old) and I'm wondering if anyone can help me out with colours! I'm thinking blue, 1 paint, but I'm not sure what some of the others are?
Thanks!
Erin

Black
Paint (?) (It looks a bit like Heterozygous Dominant white. I don't really understand the paint gene.)
Splash (?)
Blue
Splash

The splashes could also be lavender, I guess, but with a blue chick in the mix, splash seems more likely.

EDT: Incidentally, could you number the chicks in your pictures? I'm assuming you took two pictures of the second one, and of the third one, from their markings, but I'd like confirmation on that.

I don't quite know how to number them but the second I took two pictures of to get the markings. The third and fourth are different chicks! The rest of the photos are just singles.
