We took einstein outside for the first time today, and let s/he play around Apoc. Apoc licked Einstein...and that was about as interesting as it got!

What you people think of the type of my European Silkie roosters ?

Young BlueSilver rooster +- 9 months now, becoming an "extreme" type breeder


Adult BlackSilver rooster, a breeder for "extreme" types

Beautiful! Thank you for posting this! Silver duckwing patterning is one of the things I'm aiming for and it's good to know it can be done! Too bad you are across the pond

Here is my boy with at least one silver gene (silver in his hackles and a little bit in the wing.) Breeding down the road should tell me what else we have. Is yours based on E S/S ar/ar, ER, or e? Or are silkies generally based on eb? I understood that the addition of Ml turns the green sheen to blue and presence of Ar to a purplish/bronze sheen.
