Overall good arrival.. Simple and to the point as a great guide or "rule of thumb" to get what you need based on elements. Great job!

I have 3 Silkies, all 6 months old (2 roos and one pullet). 10 silkies in the incubator and 21 sizzles in the incubator. All your characteristics are exactly on point, even the beaks. Only difference is, my 2nd silkie roo, does not crow, or shuffle around the pullet. But this may be due to his brother, being a more dominate roo, so he roosts on the poles and acts like a pullet lol.
But "Bravo!!!" You did excellent research here and tought me new things to look for as my new batch hatch.. Below are my 2 boys, and 1 girl

Very beautiful silkies you have! My lowest ranking rooster doesn't shuffle/herd either. I once saw him try but the pullet just pecked him in the head and he gave up. Maybe it was mean for me to do, but I laughed really hard!
Great insight to give those a tid bit of what they will be getting into.
Smart to know that its not just "get a cute chick and thats it"
Much more maintenance than a new puppy or finch in a cage... Little hits thats it's much greater of a responsibility
