Silkie thread!

Was asked for some updated side photos of my little silkie girl yesterday and so I took them today. She was in the shade though cause I couldnt get around to it till late this evening at around 5pm. But here's some pictures, she's with some of my other silkie hens in these pics so please excuse that lol.


That dark spot on her left (our right) is a dark patch of feathers, she has some patches here and there on her face as well as the rest of her body.
She still looks paint to me.

Can someone please explain what they mean when they say "smut" and "leakage" ? Sorry. So very new to this!
I'm not an expert so someone correct me if I'm wrong but leakage mean black for example has the gold colouring coming threw on the neck feathers and is not pure black and the smut term is mostly used with buffs they are surpposed to be a rich golden colour but some have black tiped wings or in there tail feathers which ppl refer as smutt the black grey stuff

To my understanding smutt is like the black in a buffs tail and leakage is like when a black silkie rooster has gold or silver in his kneck feather... hope this helped
