Yeah, I had a roo that was similar to that, recently sold him, but he didn't have the black tail. That's what makes yours unique.

Would u say its like some kind of paint

Hard to tell with the pictures on his paint spots... However he's definitely got the columbian pattern with the blackish hackle pattern and the black tail. also see some black in the wing's flight feathers. He is very neat looking though!

Yes, he looks more like columbian than like paint.

I'd never heard of a Columbian Silkie before. Just googled it and they are beautiful! I agree, he does look Columbian. Learn something new every day!

Ya kind dose look like columbian and paint is there such a mix cause he has the black tail and neck like a columbian and has black dots like a paint

He does have spots similar to this paint roo I recently sold:

However after looking up pics of a Columbian and looking at the tail of yours, your roo appears to be some sort of mix. I think he's a very pretty bird though! Maybe one of the experts here will know more.​

OMG! I am in love with your paint SG Silkie! I want one someday, so badly!

Thank you! I have two more paint showgirls, just waiting to see what they grow into.

Oh you had to tell me that! I am so crazy for showgirls, (even though I don't have any, LOL).

I wasn't too fond of them until my first paint showgirl hatched. I'm hooked. I have 3 paint and 1 black showgirl so far.

I don't know why I love them so much, I guess there is something so sweet and vulnerable about them. I have NN bantams, also, and I like them equally well.
