Silkies Of A Different Color

[Sebrightmom]

Looks like a lavender partridge or something like that to me. Very pretty. I would say male also. I would love to have one like that.

I think pullet. The comb may look a bit big for that age in the 3rd pick but I don't see any other tall tale signs of a boy at that age. I have been wrong before though. Color wise I haven't a clue I don't work with AOV colors at all.

Thanks for your help. He/she sure acts more like a pullet. I have a 4 mo old cockerel also & he is so much bolder than this one. My full grown white silkie rooster has done his dance for her but has also chased her away though gently. Love watching these silkies!

I'm going to say it may possibly be a calico and it appears to be a cockerel to me.

Thanks for your input. I think the color would make a handsome roo.
