I've put Silkies and Call Ducks in the same pen..no problems. I've also had Silkies hatch Call Ducks, the chicks seemed confused, but happy

Thanks, I'll try that

Quick question.... Digital vs Bulb. While setting up bators I noticed the digital thermometer was reading about 5 degrees less then bulb in same incubator. Last few hatches with Digital thermometer were dismal to say the least. Thought I'd get some opinions, if any, about Digital vs Bulb Thanks

Where did you order from? I'm trying to find them in MD, but no luck. My first chicken was a Silkie hen, gone now, but lived a good 7 years. Never hatched her own eggs, but would always take over the Call Ducks nest. Hope you enjoy your silkies
