This video is an in-depth guide to those looking to breed or purchase Silkies, Satin, Silkied Seramas or any other breeds/breed projects that involve Silkie Feathering crossed with Normal feathering. This video goes over the how the silkie gene (h) affects their feather structure, as well as how the gene works so you can effectively breed for or against it in your breeding program. In this video we go over 6 difference punnet squares to show all of the possible combinations of breeding to get (or eliminate) silkie feathering.
