Sigrid van Dort suggests that leakage of the red pigment is quite common in white (dominant and recessive) Silkies. Sometimes the colour knock out feature of the white just isn't strong enough to knock out all the red. She describes it as a "buffish" colour. She says the feathers can appear randomly all over the body or be limited to the breast in hens and wing bow in roosters.

Barb, There is no red hue to it at all, not even Buffish, it is golden/yellowy. Only in the hackles on both the hen and roo. I tired to get some pics today, but the sun was not in my favor, nor were the birds with the now 10, little ones running around!

They won't let me into that area and they won't let me post pictures - keep getting this you don't have permission message. What's up with that??

I believe you need more posts under your belt, like 20 maybe?? Keep talking they add up quickly!

Oh sure. I've been a red head for 20+ years too. People have witnessed me in the last 20 years, but were they there at night when the L'Oreal came into play??? Noooooooo....

Sherbert is absolutely stunning. Please let us know when he starts
producing offspring. I'd like to be the first in line to buy chicks or eggs! Tina
