Yes, they're porcelains hatched out of kelar (Catdance Silkies) eggs.

Ok, just lost my post

So recessive whites are actually colored birds wearing a white sheet per say right? So they can throw other colors if bred together or would they have to be bred to something other then another recessive white or could they still throw color bred to another recessive white?

Dom white on the other hand would only throw whites bred to another Dom white? What about Dom white bred to Recessive white?

Anymore info on the silver gene whites? Now that I'm completely confused !!! Just when I though it was safe to go back in the water !!!

Sorry, today I'm just not getting it and inquiring minds want to know. One day it will stick i promise !!

Guess I knew they were porcelain but the one was a bit lighter so I didn't know if it was for sure?
Very nice.

I thought recessive white bred to other colors would typically produce white since the recessive white covers up other colors. Dominant white allows for leakage.
