Very nice thread you started though..

I have 3 silkies and love their personalities. I have one showgirl hen and 2 younger ones that are about 23 weeks or so.
The get along with my cochin bantam and my standard size chickens.

Are you consulting with our long time enemies; the silkie scorners? And we trusted you!
Haha, I'm kidding

I am just going by what I was told since I am a chicken newbie. The necked neck is white with red leakage. The younger ones are blue and paint. The paint you can't really see in that picture but he/she is white with black spots.

Cuckoo, almost all still have red combs, light skin and eyes etc. Still being 'perfected'. I've only found one breeder who had achieved black skin and comb and dark eyes on cuckoo silkies.

Here's my Audrey:

I sold her a few months back because I didn't want to use her for breeding. I loved her but she didn't get on with my other silkies either
