Silkie egg color???

[Geordonbuck223]

I am hatching two silkie eggs that I got from a farm and am unsure of what color their mother was....they two eggs are white does that mean they can from a white silkie or no

Not really. Some of my darker Silkies lay darker eggs, but then I have hens the same color that lay lighter. I currently breed blue, black and splash Silkies, but have had all kinds of colors (porcelain, white, cuckoo, buff, grey, partridge). They'll lay some shade of brown, from fairly dark to just barely tinted. Here's a picture of some Silkies hatching from their eggs:

I've got two Partridge Silkies, and both of them lay eggs this color.
