List of Silkie Breeders

Old post and thread i know....but we are desperate to find silkies in maine, we tried once to ship live birds but the shipper didn't even attempt to protect them and all 8 perished....sad. sad
We here in Wisconsin got ours from Cackle Hatchery. I watched the tracking once Cackle notified me they were shipping and once arrived the Post Office called me. All went well.
Ordered 5 got 6. 1 died not sure of what, but we tried keep it alive. The other got squished. My fault I should have been a little more prepared since the chickens we got were a mixed bag of chickens.
 
I raise Bearded Buffs.
I am currently trying to get a pen of b/b/s started, all through hatching eggs
I am also NPIP, though still waiting on my certificate and number, over 4 weeks later

Anyways, also looking for trades. My bearded buff eggs for some of your bearded buff eggs or blue, black, or splash eggs. You need to be NPIP and I will need a copy of your certificate or number and I will send a copy of my actual pullorum test. Email me at [email protected] or PM me. No hatchery birds please. And parents need to be free from DQ's and I need to see pictures of recent chicks and recent pics of the parents. Thanks.

Yah, last year we order 2 months in advance.
Cool glad you got some eggs, hatching is fun. Good luck with the hatch.

Seems like it's hard to find silkies sexed...i have only ordered from Meyers in the past.
Anywhere I can order female silky ?
You would most likely have to buy one that is DNA sexed if you wanted to be sure. There are some breeders who sell them, they are expensive and can cost between $50-$100 each. 😊
