Hi fellow NH breeder. What is a Silkie/EE cross? My niece had some silkies and she send me 1 black and 1 chipmunk 2 buff orpingtons and 1 barred/sikie/? But I never heard of your type. Their so friendly, I can have my morning coffee w/one on my lap and it just sits there enjoying the view. Where are you? I'm North of the Notch. Good to know you!
