I have 3 silkies, 1 black roo, a buff hen, and a splash hen. I also have and Ameraucana but I guess she doesn't count. Maybe (if no more of the eggs are rotten, 5 out of 13 have been. today is day 21) i will have a few more.

hide I'm a game bird, and Delaware fan, but I now have 3 silkie chicks. I think they are Partridge. I've always wanted a few for broodys are fun, so I was very happy to see them in the bantam mix at the feed store when I went chick hunting for my broodys. one is a real crack up, always darting here and there, just a real cutie. it's hard to think they are less then a week old, the way they zip aroung.

I would really like to see more silkie chick pics, I'll try to share mine.

As soon as I saw the picture I thought she was one of the little one's from outback here. She has a few twins left here & they are carbon copies of her. I'm so glad you are happy with her, they are really the sweetest birds! Keep me updated on how she does!
