@Britras Oh ok I thought the white one was a female. So do you mind telling me what the streamers are, so I know for future reference?

sure no prob!

[/IMG]they are longer feathers that point backwards from the roos topknot this is a pic of my partridge boy 8mo easier to see with his color

Oh ok I see It kinda looks like spikes! Now I feel like running outside and making sure my silkie ( just got her on Saturday and was told she was a female) to make sure that the info was true

I hope so too. I got some bad news a couple of weeks ago about my chicks. Payed for them to be females... Half of them were males :/ ugh lol oh well. If they are girl and boy then you can probably count on some adorable silkie chicks running around. The good thing is ( if you want chicks) that silkies are good about hatching their own eggs, so you won't have to buy an incubator

I hatch my own eggs anyways just had 3 hatch yesterday, one still in the bator waiting to hatch. They are EE & Polish. I haven't hatched any silkies yet. I have 4 Silkie chicks (4weeks old) so if these 2 are boys, like I think they are, chances are, atleast one of the chicks will be a girl. Hopefully lol. I would love for one of them to do the hatching and raising work tho!!

The white is definitely a boy he has streamers back of head , black looks like roo also with a comb that wide can't tell if it has streamers tho, nice looking silkies!

I was afraid of that

 

[ChickenMama6RIR]

Lol! Yeah. I have to EEs. They are about 8 weeks old I love them to pieces! I wish I had a polish I just love their hair lol. At least you have more Silkie chicks in case you ended up with 2 roos

@Janie hall I am not sure. Its so young, so it's kinda hard for me to tell. Maybe someone with a lot more Silkie experience can help. Best of wishes

The blue roo over the blue sizzle hen should give you 25% splash

What would a silkie sizzle baby be?? silkie or sizzle??

 

[Ducks4us]

What would this little guy be?
Was supposed to be a silkie? Is it a frizzle?

Hi

Can I ask please- is it normal for the skin on black silkies 'faces' to look driesh?

Wondering whether I should moisturise. A bit of Vaseline? coconut oil?

Thanks x
