I bred my white and buff silkies to see what would come through because I’d like to get into breeding them soon. Anyway, they all are in the same pen right now so it’s possible my whites and buffs are crossing or staying with the and colored hens. Majority of my silkies are breeder quality but there’s a hen that’s not and while I don’t think I collected her eggs, it’s still possible.
All of this to say I have no idea what this chicks that hatched are. What do y’all think? Theres 3 chicks.
1. Has a very buff/ yellow head with stripes on its back and lighter tipped wings.
2. Is similar but the body is more silver looking.
3. Is either white or buff but has a few random black spots. I have two that hatched like that. In the future I’ll be separating my chickens more to get more true buffs and whites, this was kindve just an experiment. What do y’all think?
