These are some pictures of my 4 month old cockerel. I bought some fertilised white silkie eggs and this boy appeared from one of them, the rest of the hatch were all white silkies. He is a very large cockerel, he has black skin and fluffy feet like a silkie but he only has 4 toes. I know that his mum was definitely a silkie but the breed of his dad is unknown. I asked the woman we bought the eggs from and she didnt know. I just wondered if anyone had any ideas what he could have been? Thanks

Those spangles look like he might have gold brabanter in him, but the comb is incorrect. If you look on my byc website you'll see a picture of my brabanter roo. See the spangled breast and the crest on top? I wonder if he has some Mille Fleur d'uccle in him too? I think that is my final answer. Gold Brabanter and Mille Fleur D'uccle.

Interesting looking fella.
