Like this boy of mine?Hi Silkie Lovers! I’ve asked this questions on BYC a few times but now I’m in the motherland... anyone breed a blue Silkie with a partridge hen and what did chicks come out as??? I’m in the midst of this experiment and wondering if it’s possible to get a blue partridge, even if chances are slim or if they came out all blue or black (as it shows on the genetics charts I’ve come across). I might be WAY off but I’m thinking that my partridge is considered a black partridge so it could be a 50/50 chance??? Or maybe I will just get straight up blue and blacks with some recessive partridge genes hidden in them. I can always get some splash out of the coupling down the road by mixing my blues (if I get some soon)... Christmas morning, Christmas morning!! Lol
Breeding blue to Partridge may work, won't hurt to try it out.Hi Silkie Lovers!

He’s SOOO cool!!! What a beaut!!!
Hello, loses happen.
I will also be working on some Silkie projects in the future. Right now I'm working on Wheaten Crele Orpingtons.
