Silkie thread!

[subhanalah]

So cute! Which ones are silkies? All the partridge? Lol I guess I need to start a partridge silkie farm . Snow is broody again and has tucked 9 eggs under her. Im going to let her hatch. Hopefully it turns out good.

I certainly hope so!
Yes, all the partridge are silkies. I have two blue ameraucana and two black easter eggers, but there is one or two black silkies as well. And a white silkie!
Not all of them are in the picture, lol.

This approx 6 week old pullet, I'm saying its a pullet cause I think she is, came from my 3 year silver partridge project. She was born with the correct color & markings. I just want a confirmation that she is indeed a silver partridge...I finally think, I also have a couple of boys....I've been searching and couldn't find any breeding boys, so made my own...

I purchased 5 5 week old Blueish, Blackish (hopefully girls) Silkie's
AND
4 5 week old Blueish, Blackish (hopefully girls) Silkie crosses (should be similar to the crosses I had to sell)
AND
5 more, 2 week old, Old English Bantams that should be girls.
They are all soooooo pretty.

Ok guys so i need some help. I am new to this forum and just bought some chickens that i was told were white silkies. I have always wanted some and have been looking everywhere for some. I bought 3, 2 of them have black beaks, black skin and 5 toes. My other one has a yellowish pink beak, with yellow feet and 5 toes. They all have fur on thei feet but the one with the yellow feet has more furr than the other 2. Also i am worries something is wrong with the silkie with the yellow feet because her legs are very wide apart, and she doesnt stand up like the other 2, she stays where ever you lay her and doesn't really walk much. It almost seems like she is dragging her feet a little. So could she be a silkie even though she has yellow skin and a yellowish beak but has 5 toes?
Here are some photos of the chickies i bought.
Here is the photos of the one with yellow skin




Notice her legs being apart, and here she is messing with them, im not really sure what could be wrong with her leg.

Any ideas what this could be on my splash baby? I noticed it the other day. Its completely bald. She's one of the biggest chicks in the group so it would be odd if she were being picked on. They seem to all get along great so what in the world could this be? Oh and her crop is huge because she just finished pigging out on boiled egg lol.

Is it dry? Oozing? Flaking?
I personally would put a little betadine on it twice a day. I use betadine on everything LOL.
