I have some new babies I am going to post a pic of maybe y'all can help me figure out what color they are! What do you cross for poceline? This is what I am leaning toward ... mom is buff and there are 2 possible fathers one is blue the other is a sizzle with mostly black and buff neck feathers I can post their pic also.

It takes someone who really knows genetics to produce porcelain. You have to cross something to lavender thats all I know.

We are going to build a small area in the shed that their pen is attached to for them to go inside during winter. They will have wood shavings on their floor as they do in their pen. Trying to keep the feet in good shape.

I love seeing everyones silkies!!
I got some better pics of one of my new little girls. The boys went nuts over her but things have started to settle down and she has integrated well with everyone.

Here she is out and about with everyone. She is the one in the middle.

She prefers Sammy's company over anyone else. He does take good care of her too. Now I have to think of a name. Maybe Delilah as in Sampson & Delilah since she likes Sammy so much? What do you think?

What color would you consider Sammy ..... and is that a full white pattern around his neck..?? is it white or grey..?? very unusuall... I like it....!
