Hello!
I’m new to the chicken community. I have a phobia of birds but my little family REALLY want chickens. So here I am researching super friendly cute docile small chickens. And the silkie came up and my gosh they are so goofy and cute looking (and I really don’t think birds are cute).
The downfall we’re in Canada and get all 4 seasons so quite a big chunk of the year is wet and cold. This year has been an exceptionally year with hardly no snow and average 0 degrees Celsius.
Should we get them? So I can expose my self and start with these cuties to get over this life long phobia.
Or jump into a more hardy bird like orpingtons and hope for the best with the phobia?
Thanks for your help!
