That would be awesome!!! I looked for a Splash near me for almost a year...finally found one ...3 days later...a coon got her . These are supposed to be Sizzles...getting a splash, (or 2), would be a bonus!!!!

I agree to 2 blue and 2 splash. What makes you think lavender? Remember lavenders are completely different genetics than blue and take 2 copies of the lavender gene to make a lavender chick, do you have Lavender adults?

Here is a good chart showing the difference. Many times people have very light blues or splash and mis-identify as lavender but lavender when compared to blue is a very light even pastel color.

I ordered sizzle hatching eggs...blues, splash, lavender and others were mentioned in the ad. The reason I was thinking lavender is because the one is a real light almost, (but not quite), white. Here is a better pic...

The one on the left, Windy, I don’t care if it’s lavender or not...I was hoping for blues and splashes...lavender would just be a bonus. She will be loved no matter the color!!

Thank's for that color chart on them. I saved it to a folder I started on silkies on my PC.

Down to 31 birds. Not hatching any more to next Spring. Want to enjoy a dustless bathroom, garage, kitchen Anyway, here’s some from my last photo shoots. I really love photography and have some great photos. I was thinking of making a Silkie/Satin/Polish calendar. Do you think anyone would buy it?
Top pic is a splash from Kate Morreales eggs. The bottom is my Dun chocolate.
