Silkie thread!

Time to choose which roo to keep for my partridge pen....I hate choosing!
The first or the second??? Both have great feet, good wings...and both are a
bit "droopy" due to high temps/humidity. Oh, and both are challenged with crests
since they had some of their beautiful plumage removed complements of other roos

Thoughts, anyone????? Thank you!!!

I like the second one the best.You mentioned their wings were droopy so i can't really tell which one has the best wings, but in the pictures the first one has the best wings. Its hard to tell though without pictures of their feet and a front shot of the first rooster. I don't breed partridge though so I could be wrong.

I definitely agree that the second one is the prettier of the two

Willow/by--my little cripple baby....what do you think? Splayed or something else? She usually does not sit up like this....maybe she is getting better...see her right toes?

Maybe its the way she's sitting, or a trick of the camera, but the picture makes it look like her legs are fused together......or like they're both coming out of the same side. Can you take a picture from underneath....like if you were to look up her skirt- so to speak. I can't offer any help, but I am very curious.

Can't see streamers from the front. Need a side view.

I love their coloring. That second one has an awfully red comb. Is the first one any darker?

I don't see any streamers. Looks girl to me. :_)

Love them! Congrats!

I have been thinking girl toom this whole time, until now. Maybe I am just looking at her too much and too closely.

Those two are a pretty pair, so I am hoping she is a she and starts laying soon.

Oh, how cute!! I can't wait to get my incubator out and start hatching some more fluffy butts! I had to take a break from hatching so many....Anyways, you have very adorable silkie chicks.
