Hello,
A family member of mine has 4 silkies, 2 boys and 2 girls, he gives me the eggs to incubate. Since 1 of the girls is white and 1 girl is black and the 2 boys are black, I only wanted to keep the true black colors (since if I keep the white looking ones, I might get black genes which will later on become breed and seen).
Some if some of the chicks come out white, I know I shouldnt keep them bc there is only black roosters, so obviously it has black genes.
But my questions is the if the chick looks black, then it has only black jeans right?
It be alot easier to just separate them but there is only one white hen and they arent mine to begin with :/
