5 out of 7 eggs hatch, sadly 2 dead in shell, possibly result of
a 16 hour power cut at a critical time. 4 Silkies & 1 Pekin |
13/04/10
This Pekin has a grey dorsal stripe over yellow & gold down.
I thought egg was laid by blue hen, though. |

Palest Silkie looks buff or light partridge, just like mum, who
is meant to be a Silbar |

A definite partridge Silkie chick, looks really 'chunky' and full
of beans. |

How we got 2 blue chicks from a white cockerel is beyond me. Maybe
dad's a diluted splash with no spots? |

Not quite dried yet, but the gold and grey markings in the down
are showing already. Not sure what colour this will be. |

No doubting the colour of this little chappie, a sturdy looking
partridge Silkie. |

The second of the blue silkie chicks also looks quite black. |
