    Both pictures have a different brown bird, one raised indoors and one raised under a broody. Seems to make a difference in growth rate? The barred is a Plymouth Rock. Should be sex-linked and female.

    Where does your Rooster sleep?

    No Roos allowed, but the neighbors have had one for years and years. I’d like to hatch some babies out of some good quality hens I have, but stressing over the Roo is taking all the fun out

    Where does your Rooster sleep?

    Thank you for replying! I’ve read about no crow collars and planned to bring him inside at night, but worried he will cause problems when out in the run.

    How do you keep them from crowing when out during the day?

    Silkie Barred Rock chick

    wondering if the dotted head on this chick is still true of being female or if mixing breeds disqualifies the dot. Silkie dad, barred rock mom. Other chicks hatched with this one are full frizzle silkie and silkie/bantam cochin so their size difference is throwing the barred rock mix. Thank you...

    Silkie too or “show quality” hen??

    They’ve lived together since the silkies were 8 weeks and my other chicks were approximately 5 weeks. I do have a bully hen and am considering setting up a separate run for the silkies. I have a huge Cochin that is the silkie protector so as long as she continues, I am hoping they will all...

    Silkie too or “show quality” hen??

    Thank you that’s SUPER helpful!! I don’t intend to show or breed, I just wanted silkies. But if I had some hidden show quality hen, I could pick up a hobby

    No eggs yet but I’ll keep an eye out! I’m new to silkies, OBVIOUSLY. MY other girls are easier with their short combs and wattles ;)
