Splash Silkie Rooster x White Showgirl?

[ourlittleflock]

anyone have any pics of what the cross will look like...

will some come out splash or white - or be a lighter splash than the rooster?

 

[roocrazy]

whites ressesive so i think it would be a blue or splash

 

[ourlittleflock]

so by crossing them is that a good way to get the splash showgirl I am looking for?

you would get all blue offspring, however some white silkies are masking buff, so in that case you would get blue birds with some buff leakage.

I know this a off the topic but what is a showgirl?

Thanks

This is a Buff Show Girl, Show girls are a cross between Silkie X Turken.

Hard to tell what you would get...it would be like mixing a box of crayons together!!

I'm sure know this mountaintop silkies, but I'm saying this to Muscovies, Showgirls are bred from crosses between silkies and Turkens then the offspring are bred back to silkies for many generations.

Here is a link to the showgirl thread for anyone wanting more info! They are basically a nacked necked silkie, but should have all silkie characteristics. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=416003&p=1
