You’ve never heard of Hatchery quality buff?

Agree to disagree.

What Hatchery sells blue cream aka Porcelain silkies?

I’m not arguing anymore. Because you’ve always disagreed with literally everything I say...

It looks like a blue cream

I saw this thread before it had any replies but held off to wait for the masses.

It is definitely a blue cream (a.k.a porcelain)

Porcelain anything is never white. That would be called white if it was.

OP where did you get the bird?

Here's why it's a Blue Cream

Crest is lavender. Body is a faded buff.

Porcelain silkies are actually lavender and buff. No mottling. So in reality they are a false porcelain. Calling them blue cream makes more sense.

Essentially, you end up with a phenotypical lavendar buff columbian.

I bought her from a lady who said she had bought them at Tractor Supply. I didn't mean to get an argument started! If I breed her, it will just be for more pet Silkies. I'm not going to sell or show them, so the color is really not that important. I was just curious. Please don't fight.

If she got them at TSC, then she is definitely a buff!

She is beautiful at any rate.

We aren't fighting.

I guess she could be a buff, but that still doesn't explain the crest color.
