@jerseysilkie: Found this handsome Black Mottled Silkie cockerel out in our grow out coop today and the decision was instant he is definitely staying. 🖤🍒 When evaluating keeper cockerels, foundation type always comes first. The compact, round body, dense crest, full beard, and balanced proportions on this boy check every single box. Add in the clean mottling coming through the tips against solid black feathering. He’s exactly the direction we breed for. Are you selecting for color or prioritizing body type first in your breeding pens this season? Let me know below. 🍒🖤🍒#Lemon8
