It would be most helpful if you could take some photos so we can see the birds -- no way to really answer with out seeing them.

i will take some photos soon, but is that common to leghorns?

No, it's not. It's likely a sign of mixed breeding. Pics will help see what we're dealing with.

Don't most silkies have blue earlobes?
Would also be good to know age of bird in question.

Quote: That tells me that they are under a year old and female......but could be 2 weeks old or 10 months old.
