Silkies

[silkie gal]

Hi!
I'm new to this site. I recently acquired couple little hens but I'm still in search of two more, I'd love to get a black Silkie and a Rhode Island Red. Any one here know where I can get those?..

If you haven't already, check out Buy ~ Sell ~ Trade under the forum tab. Hope this helps!

EDIT: Otherwise if you want chicks you could just get some from a hatchery.

Hello

You can check the Buy, Sell, Trade section of BYC. Also if you have any local shows coming up that is another great way to find breeders.

You need 20 posts to participate in the BYC buy,sell,trade forum. You can get those posts pretty quickly if you just welcome new members on this thread like we do.

Do they have five or six toes? Silkies are supposed to have five toes (which is an extra one for most breeds) http://www.americansilkiebantamclub.org/standard.htm
