John:
I have been getting some of those white headed pullets each year from the bantam silvers.  This year I only had one.

I notice that the silver pullets with the darkest breasts and that have the dark salmon color coming all the way up their necks also have some on top their heads, near their combs.

I have a few white headed birds this year.  I used a white headed hen in the breeding pen.  The interesting thing is thet the white headed birds start out with brown down color.  Not the typical chipmunk color that you expect for silvers.  I thought that I had a gold gene in one of the males and I was getting some light browns, but they are all growing  out white feathers.  That is why I was asking about these Larkllin birds.  I was curious to find out if they are hatching out these brown chicks.
