can you eat "silkies" eggs? I have two and they are young so I do not know their sex but I was told that their eggs are not good? thoughts and ANY advice would be much appreciated!! Thank you!!
-
Before I bought them I did not know that they are a mixed breed. I thought they were Araucana. I love them just the same. No eggs yet as they are babies.

I am just wanting to recommend Nathan Howe, in Wesley Chapel, FL as a breeder for these lovely birds - I just went to his place and purchased 2 very young pullets - very healthy, active,...

This is a wonderful breed, so sweet and calm! They chatter, but it's very quiet. Mine are sweet little (big) lap chickens and very docile. One will just let you put her on your lap and...

I tossed a few of these treats down for my baby chicks (about 4-5week olds) and they went literally crazy over them. Pecking frenzy, rushing around and enjoying themselves. good to give on...

Beautiful!!!!! 
Oh great, more Turken threads to rub it in that other people can raise them and I apparently can't. . .
I once had 10 Turkens, and. . . They all eventually died, either from disease, crop impaction, or intolerance to the constant cool, rainy weather.
If anyone has cold hardy, breeder quality Turkens - tell me. 
Anyway, here's the only two that made it past 4 months:
Gallidia, died last month. She was alive the last time I posted these pics. 
Licourice - died in my arms from crop impaction.

Way cool. I unexpectedly happened to get semi-laced out of mutts- dont have any laced birds or breeds. One gold like yours, one silver laced with stronger lacing. Because of those two I am going ahead with plans for laced NN... but also would like their tails to be laced, like in sebright and polish. I got a couple sebright roosters to breed with this hen:
I also got an obviously Wyandotte NN cross rooster out of what was supposed to be NN eggs, He looks probably silver penciled.... may use him to see if I could get pencilled or even laced NN with the Wyandotte style lacing- black tails.
Would love to stay in touch with you and anybody else doing laced NN projects?

Illia, that was so sad.
They are good birds. Perhaps try again from a different source and/or have them vaccinated? I would offer eggs, but mine are from very dry and very hot summer area..
Very cute birds, Lisa. Cant wait to see your giants when they are mature.
Josh, those birds are extremely nice!
Southern, I hate chick pictures like yours. They always make me tempted to look at hatchery website to see pricing/availability for 25 turken chicks....
