Hello all! I had to sell my flock (including the silkie in my profile pic) 8 years ago when I went away to college. I’m just now starting back up!

Yesterday I came home with a lady’s beardless silkie flock. I mostly want them for incubators for my other birds. I realize most of the birds are pet quality but I’d still like to know their colors.

I already know most are buffs with some dark color leakage, and others are either black or Partridge

But which color are these? Hen 1 is a silvery gray mix. Hen 2 is black with bronze on her neck. Hen 3 is black but much lighter than the other black one, though it’s hard to see the difference in the photos.

Thanks for any help!

Your last one if I see it correctly is chocolate.

The others besides your buffs are splash or partridge.
