Quote: In some varieties, the genes responsible for plumage colour also dilute skin. In these the birds can have comb and wattles that are more raspberry than mulberry. And if the bird is not pure for black skin, it can be even more red.

Assuming these are not the case, there is no real change of comb/wattle colour in silkies. Sun and testosterone can slightly lighten comb colour on a more temproary basis. (Look at two silkie cocks who are sparring; chances are that the combs may be a bit redder than usual.)

Ok my peeps, here are a few of my Pet Quality chicks from the cuckoo roo that im selling hence the red comb and light eyes . But all have black skin and correct toes and about 3mos. Any quess on the sexes they all look the same to me except # 1 and # 8. I will post them one at a time because I havent the best internet connection out here in the boonies

Thanks for your help in advance.

Male based on comb size and size of wattles.

Where are you in OR? I'm going down to Vancouver, WA area to get some chicks soon. 

Bouffant, a Catdance partridge hen, is also available for anyone....

I'm in Roseburg will you be coming thru here? I would really love some pullets or hens two but I think she sold that partridge, I hope I'm wrong. Thank you for thinking of me.

All these I guess male and the others could go either way. Really they all look too young to know for sure. I love the pale partridge color.
