The link says they are paints? I'm sorry there is no way we can tell you what you will get, the breeder should know which eggs she gave you from which colors, and if the colors aren't seperated there is NO way to tell you what you will get and most likely you will get lots of unique colors that don't have a name.

My new cockerel is the sweetest boy, and has taken on the role of "Mr. Mom" to my showgirl chick and lone button quail hen. Around them, he is incredibly gentle and allows them to take shelter underneath him when they want warmth.
Around other male birds, however, he is all boy, crowing up a storm, puffing his chest out, and dragging his wing all around. Today he felt lucky enough to challenge my young Thai cockerel....through the fence of course

The Thai don't quite know what to make of the little balls of fluff puffing around the yard.

I saw your video Sheeshshe The poor little thing. She definitely looks like she is in a lot of pain. My husband and I got our first silkies this past May (2013)

Sometimes they seemed to limp when they walked. When inspecting their feet we noticed they would get wood chips or poop balls stuck in their foot feathers. I found that coconut oil messaged into their feet feathers get's out what ever is stuck in their feet and they seem to enjoy the foot message.

We recently just got two hens from a farm that the rooster was picking on and they had lost feathers on their head and back. I messaged coconut oil on their bare skin and in a week I definitely
saw new feathers filling in. All that to say maybe messaging her leg would help your poor little hen. Hope that helps. Good Luck We love our silkies and your little girl looks like she could be a sister to ours.

Here is the video of my hen with the weird foot/leg injury

Ohh my gosh I almost forgot I have something that may be helpful to you.

Sheeshe have you given her any baby aspirin to see if it helps? Maybe try talking to Peter Brown "the chicken doctor" on facebook and show him the video to get his opinion?
