Indoor Pet Silkie

[lajollachickens]

Or if you are not going to get another chicken i still think that your silkie will need some sort of other animal.
The best bet is probably getting a rabbit because they create great friendships and they can live in the same indoor coop.


I would use dry straw for the bedding because the rabbit and the chicken would love it.

Hope that helps

Wow Cool i saw that same one at Pet Stop thereclosed down is that were you got it?

This is the coop we bought for indoors (Amazon) I just put puppy training pads down with some shavings...it works well.
This is the coop we use for outdoors, again Amazon. They both are from Ware...good luck!

yes she gets outside alot, during the summer she is outside more than in...winters are cold here and since she doesn't have a buddy to snuggle up with outside, she only goes out on warmer days. She has bonded with our golden retriever, she loves him and snuggles up to him when she is out of her cage and he lays next to her cage alot...it is the cutest thing. She is with us all day and evening, rarely is she alone. We recently got a kitten and he loves her, she puts him in his place, but she has lots of activiity around her so she shouldn't be too lonely. I don't think I could handle another chicken at this time...but if she seems too lonely I will consider it. She is one year old now and seems to be quite happy
