The lighter skin is a fault that many people cull for. The coloring of the silkie sounds interesting though! Do you have a pic? It sounds like a paint...
You're big one could be a roo but it could also just be bigger. I wouldn't judge sex based on size at 4 weeks. My for sure boy baby is the biggest but he's almost 7 weeks and is looking more like a boy everyday, he also acts like a boy A LOT! lol

A paint would not have dark feathers "here and there," but rather has patches of dark feathers. I believe feathersite has comparison photos between splash and paint.

In my head that's what I was envisioning the poster meant that there was patches of dark feathers but now I read again I see what you are pointing out and agree

I believe anything crossed with white (that isn't another white) is sort of a "crap shoot" and usually very unpredictable.

AWESOME!!! Congrats! I saw some cuckoo eggs on BYC recently and I was soo tempted but I'm not even attempting to get away with adding another color to my plans. If I budge now I'll have myself convinced I need them all!
