What kind of Orpington?

[RoosterML]

HI,
I will first start by saying that i am new member to BYC but i have been using all the great info from this site since i started keeping chickens since the spring of this year. Yes i am very new at it so please forgive me if i ask some fairly simple questions at times.

I just lost what i believe was a Silver Partridge Orpington Rooster. Cause unknown i am awaiting Necropsy results. Needless to say i want to replace him (once i find out the results). Here is a picture of his sister. Can someone please confirm what she is? I again think she is a Silver Partridge Orpington Hen.
I have a Buff, and Lavender along with her that i wanted to breed with my recently pasted rooster. While the off spring would be pure Orpington i think it would be fun to see what colors could have been. Sorry my Jersey Giant / RIR hen photo bombed.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Your are right. Silver Partridge aka Silver Penciled depending on the breed. And the same pattern in Brahmas is known as -Dark-.
