    Thank you! As I explained to my stubborn husband,lol, I would never let my chicken wonder through the house unattended, unless I put the cats in the bedroom for a little while. My cats and dogs have always nurtured and loved kittens we have rescued, which 2 of the 3 cats we have are those...

    I'm looking for a pet silkie, a chicken to hold and love and be part of the family, while also having their outdoor time, under my supervision. My animals love baby animals, so a chick would be welcomed and treated gently by all the dogs and cats and kept safe.

    Hi, I am new here and VERY new with chicken ownership. I have researched silkies and I am looking for a breeder in Union County or close by. So far the best place I have found online for silkies is almost 3 hours away and I do not want my chick shipped.
