I hatched these cuties and the color of these two have me stumped. Nothing like the others I have.

This one is more gray than it looks in the picture but has reddish ends on some of its feathers. Does not look like my blue silkies.

Same chicken. Love her full crest and she's only 11 weeks.

Thanks!
 
appears to be blue and and most likely since its blue, its either a splash x red/partridge/buff cross as well. Some blues have off coloring, but its more of a tinge than that is, and I've seen them that are more blue with lemon off coloring, but I think the first may be pure but the others are crosses of the colors.
 
Where did you get the eggs? That might help. They could be project colors or just mixed colors. I'm no expert, but will bump u up and maybe an expert will come along. Lol
 
Blue, blue partridge & partridge. It is *possible* that the blue will end up blue partridge; I've known of a few that did that.
