Gammas Bearded Babies
Crossing the Road
Partridge! LUV em!!!Those are partridge color. Roosters on the arms. Others are hens. Yes I put them there. It was a bit windy that day. Silkies pose pretty well. Getting 6 to cooperate takes patience. They stick pretty well. I had the tripod set up to make it easier. It was all centered so I just needed to focus. It was too many birds for a visually nice picture, but a good sampling of my breeding at that point in time.
I have somewhere around 60 silkie or silkie mixes at the moment. That's not counting the laying pen with the ameraucana and EEs. Any of my home bred EEs have silkie blood. The flock rooster in there is silkie/ameraucana. He's been the absolute best rooster. Vigilant, puts himself between danger and his hens, friendly to me.
Could kick myself everyone I think of rehoming the one light colored Partridge I had from very first hatch!!!
Beautiful babies, just beautiful!
