What colour is my silkie?

[Chicken_Trainer2007]

I got a 19 silkies today 6 weeks to 2 days old
This one came as a “buff” what colour is it really? Its this light yellow with white and gray, and if you can tell the gender thats also a bonus

Maybe lemon splash or buff splash? I am not sure. It's probably just a mix of colors and doesn't follow a specific pattern.

Silkies are difficult to tell gender with. It usually takes a long time. Comb size is the best indicator, so if it shows a raised comb at this point it is probably a male.

You could send a sample to a lab if you want to know soon. It costs money but it may be worth it to you.
