Isabel when graypearl/cream and no white/Silver

In the EU are also wrongly used names for Millefleur and Porcelain, Millefleur diluted by lavender and Isabelporcelain.

Porcelain is now so well established for the by lavender diluted Buff/blacktails and/or gold Partridges (even it is genetically wrong) that in my opinion it better stay that way in the US.

But that is up to you US Silkie breeders to decide ;-)

I notice several breeders calling them isabel/porcelain. Maybe I'll go with that. Thanks so much for the info!!

Thank you! I am enjoying them

I'm enjoying mine as well- I have only had chickens for about 4 months, and, like you have a couple that I am not sure how to classify their color.

My husband was the chicken pro..lol..when he passed, there went all my knowlege! I should have been paying closer attention, he used to use the silkies to hatch the eggs of all his show chickens, but I like them for themselves

I first got them to use as broodies for my EE's. I was only interested in eggs. It didn't take long for those little silkies to steal my heart and now I can't get enough of them. I'm so sorry you lost your husband. I depend on mine sooooo much! I can't imagine.....
