Hello all! I have the opportunity to take over a beautiful Calico Splash project pen (my dream!). I have three beautifully Mottled silkies as well and wondered if Mottled could be used in the Calico Splash project. I mainly just don't want to get rid of the one Mottled baby that has my heart...
My kid called this one Dal, here she is as a hatchling (she’s the loud mouth in the back)
When she started growing feathers:
3 weeks, next to an Egyptian and Tibetan (disregard their tomato!) a different breeder suggested she was a Pearl at this point.
And now at almost 6 weeks 🤯🤩 her...
I live in Gainesville, Florida near Santa Fe College and found a cat almost two months ago that my neighbor lost the day she was moving out. I went to the office and had them contact her but never heard back and she didn't have a microchip so she's been staying with us since. We've been trying...

This is my first post, but I feel like I've been part of many threads, some from like 10 years ago or more, lol. I'm not new to chickens, but I am new to bantams! I finally talked my SO into helping me construct a little Bantam Village so that they can be more protected than our free rangers...

I saw an old thread about calico silkies. The birds seemed to be splash silkies with red feathers mixed in. The pictures i saw portrayed very beautiful birds, and i wonder how they're produced. Do you breed splash and partridge together? Do you cross silkies and another breed together? I'd love...
