No worries! I got you. @EmmaRainboe let me know if you still want to guess for last week!

Will do!

Okay, here are this week's! They were all extremely camera shy, and I struggled with the shadows from my shade tree, but I think they turned out alright.

I noted that ping group buff has some redness in the comb ... is that supposed to indicate anything?

Probably, but generally that's not something that you'd look for in Silkies since they are supposed to have black skin. The buffs are relatively new so the skin color hasn't been perfected in them. Though I think I have read (somewhere) that Silkies with mulberry in their combs and wattles are generally male (with mulberry being a fault since they are supposed to have black skin) but I'm not 100% on that.
