    2-Free Silkie Roosters-Hamilton, Missouri

    Thank you, I actually have a pen that is all boys, but what I don't keep are duplicate colors. These are given away to help others who want to expand their own colors. The site is very helpful and it is fun to talk to others also in the poultry world. Even if you can't agree on colors.

    If you don't want to spend a lot of money, go to garage sales, etc. and buy small blankets that are cheap, they are washable and removeable and you can fasten to fence with clothes pins exactly where you want them.

    BIELEFELDERS - Is the hype real?

    So did you decide to go with Bielefelder's? I have them and I believe their hype is real. Extra large birds which lay an extra large egg, docile, lay well and some will set. And their coloring is nice. So all around a good bird. I use the extra cockerals for frying chickens, when nobody in...

    Rooster Leg Injury plus leg mites.

    Thank you for all your kind words, I will be finding a new one soon. It is so quiet in the hen house now, no rooster to crow, didn't realize how much of a difference it makes.

    Which chickens would YOU choose?

    I would do one of each, this way you can tell them apart easier, comes in handy when you need to treat them with medicine. Colorful flock and will give you a chance to see which breeds you like the best. Good luck.
