I don't think there's anything wrong with his wings. He was moving around quite a bit when I took those photos.

What color is that on the hackles and tail? Is it black or lavender? Hmmm, they sure look like the Columbian pattern, don't they? Beautiful!

Columbian is a color. I think there was a thread a few years ago in which someone was asking about the Columbian pattern, and showed pictures of a Silkie that looked alot like yours. Honestly, if those birds were mine, I'd LOVE to work on that project, or find someone who would. Columbian is not an accepted color in Silkies, and you would be the second person I've ever heard of with them.

They look awesome. However, I think I'm seeing alot of roosters. You could enter them in a show if they don't have any disqualifications, but I THINK the best they could really get is Best of Variety, because they aren't recongnized. Someone correct me if I'm wrong...
