I'm pretty sure she is a pullet. Baby of my Paint Silkie rooster and a Gold Laced Frizzled Polish.

She is melanised, has 4 toes and clean feet, and has black spots in a line down her back, like road markings!

She is going to be a beautiful quirky little egg layer for me (I hope).

I'm rubbish at choosing good names, so all ideas welcome!!!

By way of example of my rubbishness, I will probably end up calling my two Barnevelder chicks, Barney and Velda! Seriously lacking imagination, me.

Thanks @Silviaschicks.

I have no theme except I try and think of names that I will remember easily by way of a clue!

So, my silkie rooster is called Fluffy! My black Polkie who had a dot on her head as a baby is called Dottie, and my wyandotte is called Winnie.

Told you, lacking in imagination and poor memory to top that off!
😂

I have 6 GLW's and they are named "Girls". All of them, lol.
 
She is so pretty! 🥰
Interesting she ended up with clean legs. What name did she end up with?
I have a young paint silkie cockerel that I plan to use for breeding next year, both with silkies and with other breeds. I just love the look of the hybrids. Curious what the other offspring of your boy’s look like? I know that the dominant white in paints really does dominate.😊
I'm still undecided, but Dalma is likely. She had developed some more black spots!

Here are some photos of her siblings and half siblings that her father has thrown. He is on page 1.
