    The pair this guy came from was a paint roo from paint lines, I got him from a breeder in Ky. The hen was a buff lady I had raised from a chick from my first silkies from 5 years ago.

    You can try a no crow collar if you want to keep him. I've never had to have one, some people have luck with them and some don't.

    Looks like a boy to me. I have buff as well and he looks like my boy. Give him a little more time, his streamers will turn a darker orange. He is very pretty by the way.
