The lightest one is still pretty white, the other 2 are starting to get their color.


Just for fun...

Do any of you guys have Sizzles and or Frizzles? How do they get along with the Silkies? I'm thinking of looking into some Frizzle hens, maybe Sizzles, to add to our Silkie flock. Good idea? What I've read about the breeds, they should get along just fine, right? Especially the Sizzles?

Hi there, I'm a newbie this spring/summer is my first with chicks. Mine aren't nearly as beautiful as the Silkies I've seen on this thread, but to me they're my Beautiful lil Fluffer Butts and I love them Haaaa !!! I'd love to share some pix to see what people think of my chicks but have no Idea how to earn permission to post. Any input would be helpful...otherwise I guess I'll just keep adding to my albums. Have a Great Day Peeps~!~

Oh! Your babies are BEAUTIFUL! I love the colors (Partridge fan, here) and they look so happy! Congratulations!!!!

It's looks girl to me and add behavior and that would pretty much clinch it. Make sure the lack of activity isn't a lack of visibility. Very nice juvenile!!

Thanks, Peepblessed! Yes, when I was trying to pull "her" crest feathers away to get a picture of her comb, I could barely see her eyes! I'll have to look at the feathers under her eyes to see if they need a tiny trim. Yipes. Trimming those would scare me....

looks girly to me

Oh I do hope so, Whittni! Thanks for looking.

Looks like a girl to me, and that comb is very girlie, too. Beautiful bird!

Thanks Hawkeye, and thanks for those pictures of your ~3 month olds' combs the other day! Really nice to have to compare to. Hoping "she" is indeed a "she"!

I have cuckoos as too and have the red comb and lighter skin as well. I haven't seen that many of the cuckoo with out the red?? I have two young cuckoo's coming up now (F1 from my original cuckoo rooster) I will take them to some excellent quality hens with nice dark combs when of age and see what the next offspring come out with. Not ready to part with mine as of yet, one of them happens to be a gorgeous blue cuckoo.

HERE IS BREWSTER MY CUCKOO ROO

If my fellow Silkie owners could help me, it would be much appreciated! Does this look like a Cockerel or Pullet.? I was thinking cockerel, but I am still new to raising my Silkies. Let me know what you think! Thanks!
