Meet my silkie chickens. There are a few black silkies, and the rest are paint. There are three showgirls. I have three roosters in with my ladies, one of them is a paint showgirl. They all enjoy spending their days picking around at the fruit and veggie puree extract I bring them from our juicer. They also love their BOSS (black oil sunflower seed), cracked corn, and safflower seed mix that they get in addition to their chicken feed. Of course grit is always available and oyster shell for those laying girls.
They might not be able to see well with all that fluff, but they sure must here well because quiet as I am, they're always lined up at the run door when I'm coming with their goodies!
They truly are a joy to have around.

I will add more updates later, but I think this is a good start... Feel free to leave any comments!
You can see more pictures of the full flock on my member page and chicks on my hatch page, just follow these links:
