The Fricken Chicken story!

[HappyClucker7]

Our Betta fish passed away a while back. So I finally made it to the pet store to get sand, and seen this striking boy!! He was the most stunning betta they had there! I also found pygmy gourami!! So I bought the last 5 they had.

No, not yet. My husband wants to name him

 

[Mmanist]

I dont know what to do with this cute boy?

 

[Egg Snatcher]

@Mmanist, I was just wondering because the chick doesn't have black skin. You sizzle hen is beautiful!! Pinky is very pretty too! And you got a handsom boy too! You could keep your black silkie roo and breed him to any of the offspring of your silkies or put him in your bantam flock.

 

[Mmanist]

She sure is pretty!

 

[Egg Snatcher]

What kind of polish is she?

He is more blue than black, with red and brown throughout. I have a little blue hen, not entirely sure what color she actually is. She is blue based, with tan chest feathers and a black head? She is cool looking!

Boys:
Paint rooster
Blue boy

For sure girls:
The 2 paints
Blue girl
Pinky (95% sure)

Then the babies.
White silkie (I think boy)
Frizzle (girl )
And the showgirl

It's not enough hens for 2 roosters. Right now is ok, he is young, I have no problems. I could move him to the big coop, but I have no where for him to sleep. I raised my roost up, since my youngins are practically chicken now. I'll have to think about him.

 

[Mmanist]

What kind of polish is she?

White crested blue. She almost looks more splashed looking. The other polish girl is white crested black.

If your blue roo is related to any of your silkie girls then you could get rid of him if you don't want and cross breeding or line breeding going on.

None of the silkie are related, that I know of. Same breeder, different groups, of silkie. The paint rooster and hen, she purchased from someone else, this summer. The only one I could say, maybe related, the young paint pullet could of hatched from the paint hen, or rooster? But could of hatch from one of her other paints too.
