Partridge of some sort? Just a guess lol

That's what I expected I have gotten gray chicks before from breeding black to white. These guys hatched out buff looking and are feathering in almost a lavender color.

Gotta love a good mystery color lol

Could be! Have you laid eyes on her? Is she sitting in a nest box, corner or just the floor in a trance sorta maybe puffed out a bit. If it's been two days just give her a check make sure she's not sick or hurt. Also no they don't have to have eggs under them to be broody. I've got a broody right now sitting in a crate, nothing under her but she's still dedicated as ever. lol

thanks shuga for jumping in and helping me with this.. Hoping truly it actually is broodiness and not sickness.. I picked her up and moved her into the pen with the other chickens.. hopefully she will get some food now and water

hugs​

Can someone tell me about Chocolate Silkies? We are going give a go showing at the state fair for the kids and I saw this as a category on the entry forms.

Never heard of a chocolate silkie I know some people are working on new colors but nothing is final yet.

Thats weird, I wonder why the Az State Fair would list them as a category?
