    I think I've got 2 more EE cockerels

    Our Silkie roo stays in the small brooder area (that is always open now) with all the pullets all day. Then he goes out to the run about an hour before dusk and stands guard until sundown. He's awesome.

    I think I've got 2 more EE cockerels

    Yeah, I figured. They are all behaving for now but I'll have to find a home for some of them. I have a large coop and large run, but that will make 4 cockerels (3 young EEs and 1 six month old Silkie) in my coop with 10 pullets and 4 laying hens. My plan was to keep the Silkie roo, because...

    Thanks for the reply. I spoke with the woman I got them from and she told me that she has some polish on the property, too, so it's probably a result of one of them.

    So are you moderating every post from every member? Or do you only do it for a specific amount of time or number of posts? I've been a forum admin in the past, for a fairly large forum, and there are usually easier ways to deal with spammers than moderating all new posts. Is this a specific...

    Should this still be happening after email verification? Seems like a waste of moderator time once someone has been verified.

    Mohawk and leg feathers?

    This was in with a bunch of Easter Egger chicks I picked up awhile back. Does anyone have any idea what it is? Barn yard mix?

    Silkie Crossed With ?? Any Ideas?

    I picked up 3 Silkie chicks in June...One white, one black, and one partridge. The white and black Silkies look like regular Silkies, but my partridge looks very different. Some people have told me they think it is a Silkie Cochin cross, and it does look similar to the ones posted in this...
