Hello all. Thanks for the comments.

Pat is a bantam! Thats all we know - i think her markings are classed as 'partridge' but thats all i know!

Hi all

They are now growing by the hour! And getting 'big' feathers in all places now!

3 weeks old pics!

Both our barnevelders are boys - Very thick legs and very upright!

 

Silkies I know are hard to sex so we are just watching for shape change at the moment as both are very round and timid. Although they could just be foolling us!
