About the Silver Partridge Pekin Bantam
Silver Partridge is the silver counterpart of Partridge: cocks have silver-white hackles striped with black over a green-black body, while hens are silver-grey finely pencilled all over with concentric dark rings on a silver-white, black-striped hackle. One of the recognised Pekin colours, the cool silver pencilling is intricate and prized on the breed's soft, full plumage.
