Thread Starter 

I am thinking about getting newborn baby silkies and bantam brahmas (at the same time so they will grow up together) I was just wondering if they will mix well together or not. If they do I want to get one rooster, should I get a silkie rooster or a bantam brahma rooster?

10 Bantam Brahmas, 7 Silkies, 1 Bantam Cochin, 4 EEs, 3 Chantebras, 2 Chantecler,
3 Leghorns, 1 Dominique, 1 Australorp, 1 RIR and 5 Ducks!! Total of 38 birds!

They should be fine together.  For the rooster, get whichever breed you most prefer smile
