Parsley Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I also got a partridge (a dark one) and a cuckoo/gold with a bit of partridge thrown in Not bad when you consider I went to look at the Poland chicks with an idea to reserve a couple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarlettohara Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 I was just about to post that I know what you've got and it was not two blue ones because I had the other blue Weren't they all gorgeous Did you do the different cheeping and sitting still thing to sex them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsley Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Yes I did the holding thing and I have also looked up on line that the hairdo can be different and something you can do with the toes I'm just hoping for girlies, even two out of three would be good I changed my mind several times but Racheal is so nice that it was not a problem. I had intended on just two but could not resist your blue Are you going to give them girl names or play it safe with non sex specific names? Were you driving a Ford KA because if you were we passed you leaving when we were pulling in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 What's that cheeping and sitting to sex? I have 2 x 14 week old gold silkies, and I'm still not sure on gender although I suspect they could both be boys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarlettohara Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 Sit (or balance ) them on the palm of your hand - if they sit quietly possibly girls and if they have a higher pitched but quieter cheep also girls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mollyripkim Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Hi, I'm so glad you went to racheals and saw her beautiful setup. My original three girls came from there, now five and I have two whites on order. As you said racheal is so helpful, my girls have been back twice now for holidays and they are always happy and healthy on return. Enjoy your new silkies.

Space Chick Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 One sat there quietly, the other stayed for a minute on my palm, then maneovered up onto my chest and snuggled in to me Don't know what it means ah well, time well tell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
