well oh most no birds left had to get rid of them all my chickens and my ducks but on the bright side i get to keep my silkies but my friend is keeping them for me
thank you .. her mate is not as nice though .. he was but now he lost feathers now .. he has a crooked beak to so i need a new rooster ..
this is rudy her mate .. and he has a crooked beak .. i have another pair that i got from a breeder .. the male is not the best but the hen is pretty .. she...
is this any better .. i can't do much better she hates it when im following her and don't mind the nest she is in the ducks corner so it gets mess really fast with my big ducks around
i'll try .. she doesn't like it when i try it follow her lol she is camera shy unless i hold her .. i can try ... but so far she looks nice ?? if she has a nice stance what does that mean she is show worthy or she is just a nice bird ?
onyx my black silkie when she was younger ... what kind of quality do you think onyx is ?? good or bad show type or not good enough

the one in the front is mardy my barred rock hen .. someone told me chickens with blue eyes are usually blind or something because they asked if she could see .. and then lilly my easter egger hen and then jewel my old english game hen .. then the back round guys my female ducks and my drakes
Hey guys i haven't been on here for a while but i wanted to take some pictures of my black silkie and wanted to know what you guys think of her .. i am gonna put pics in from when she was younger to now .. she didn't look as nice as she does now when she was younger .. i will take the pictures...
i already removed all the extra eggs from underneath her ... but should i remove the 2 roosters and the hen from her pen ? because last time her mate broke all of her eggs
i removed the extra eggs so she only has 6 of them ... i had this problem before and i hatched the chicks out my self in my room without a incubator but one had a hernia and another got grabbed by a bird ... my hen is very quite and attacks no warnings she just attacks .. she doesn't make no...
onyx my black silkie hen went broody before but she was very quite but would stay fluffed up .. she is like that now .. she was on the nest oh most all day yesterday and last night and still on them right now ... she has 6 small eggs under her but they sometimes pop out from underneath her .. so...
think my girl finally went broody .. she has stopped laying the past 4 days and she has been going on the nest every night for the past 3 days and she was on the nest for most of the day today .. but she is on 9 eggs .. is this to much for a silkie hen ?
my friend aoxa said his mother had a crooked beak but she said she gets some good ones from his mother so i guess it will pass through sometimes and other times it wont because other chicks from his mother have a normal beak .. its like a tilt to the left pretty much not like a cross beak i...
i agree .. he will be fine being attacked unless it gets to bad .. its normal for this to happen ... this is why if i introduce a new bird to some others i usually have two of them its easier that way but it should settle down soon and if not then you might have to get rid of your drake .. is...
they should already be mating then mine started when they were 1 year old but different kind of duck but it should be the same ... how do you know they are not mating ?? you just don't see it or you checked the eggs ?
