Silkie breeding, genetics & showing

[ket806]

Just want to add that Tapatalk allows you to upload pics that are on your mobile device w/out using photobucket. You can even open up a reply, take a photo with your device and it will be embedded directly into the post. Pretty handy...

Awesome I am going to find it and download it! I do use my phone a lot

I dont think you would be unhappy with her Silkies. I have a couple from her eggs I bought from someone else and bought these two girls from her recently.They are both very nice!These two are under 6 months old.

Oh too cute!! They make me giddy I am so excited to start!

"Come slave! I am ready for my pedicure"

Your buff looks great to me =) She's very rpetty, The other two, their crests are too small but they are cute as well =) Think you could get a good wing shot of the buff and a foot shot? The white looks to have slip wing, I can see a gap. The black doesn't have enough foot feathering.

edit: I can actually see the buff's feet, her foot feathering isn't the best either. Here is a picture of my buff, you can see her feathering, pretty much just remove the beard and you have a non-bearded   They would probably do decent in  fair show, but I don't know if they are breeding quality.

Oh she is adorable!!!! Does the different shades of buff mark off? At this age do they pretty much look like what there are going to?

Yeah, some people have been calling her powder blue, she's very light for a blue.

I am actually not sure what she is

some said smutty buff, which is a buff with darker colors that aren't supposed to be there. I have found some like here called buff partridge, but she is just an odd ball so I showed her AOV(all other varieties) as "creamsicle"

I love her color and I want to make it my project. She actually has some blue spots in her which is why I can't settle on a single known color.

Here's her face
