    Raising Silkies or Minorcas to butcher - how long?

    I am about to butcher 2 silkie roo's along with a polish roo, and 2 buff orph x easter egger roos tomorrow morning. I've tried giving the silkies away several times so I figured we'd just try eating them. They are aweful looking as far as silkie's go and mean to boot. I'll post later how it goes :).

    Would you post pics of your silkie x cochin crosses?

    I have a buff colored silkie roo and a black cochin bantam hen that I'm thinking about breeding. I'm just curious what the outcome would be. Anyone have any?

    Chick covered in yellow goo

    I have 3 dozen eggs in my bator and the first hatched about 10min ago and looks great. Just now a second one hatched but quite a lot if yellow goo came out with him. He also looks like he may have some kind of growth on his head. He hatched stong and fast and is acting normal for a freshly...

    Does it stand a chance?

    I checked it all around though and nothing is leaking out and the membrane looks to be still closed up with no holes.

    Does it stand a chance?

    O it's not just cracks it's completely missing pieces of shell in places. I mean, I'm amazed it stayed together when I picked it up lol. It's cracked and broken all around the whole egg but just barely holding together. I'll leave it in the bator but will the humidity be ok? It's ranging between...

    Tractor Supply Silkies

    I was just wondering if anyone had pictures of full grown TS Silkies. I got a few today from their assorted bantam bin, and just wondering what to expect. I had one silkie roo from a private breeder a few yrs ago but he was the only silkie I've ever had. I'm guessing these guys will all be buff...

    Chick that's struggling

    Thank you for replying! He started eating and drinking the next day. I was so hopeful, as he seemed to be improving a lot but unfortunately he did not make it. I woke up to him dead out of no where. Live and learn I guess.

    Sleeping 2 by 2 by 2

    My grown chickens do that a little bit. They are always all together during the day, but when they roost at night they roost in pairs according to when we got them. So, the older birds roost together and the younger birds roost together. Not by color though....

On the evening of day 21 another egg pipped with just a little progress by morning of day 22. By afternoon on day...
