    I have a beautiful chicken raised from a chick don't know the breed.

    My mottled Cochin bantam looked like that when she was a babe but she has feathered feet.

    Silkie Roo hatching eggs question

    If I could get Papa in the photos too, that would be great! He's a bit of a handful at times. Not the friendliest. He doesn't bother me but won't let me pet him or pick him up. Tries to bite my Mom when she takes care of the flock when I'm on vacation. He was sort of a rescue so I didn't hand...

    Silkie Roo hatching eggs question

    Awwww yes that's such a sweet idea! They weren't brooded by their Mama's so they aren't ready to be introduced yet as they're too small.

    Silkie Roo hatching eggs question

    Hum, I guess my birds aren't show quality! I got the hen from mypetchicken.com and the rooster came from a local feed store. As for the barnyard mixes, they will never have those qualities but the uniqueness of the newbies is exciting! I'm not interested in showing my birds anyway. They're my...

    Silkie Roo hatching eggs question

    I think that's the hens. This is my bantam silkie hen, Barb. She has a beautiful walnut comb. Unfortunately, I don't have a good picture of it. If she wasn't fast asleep under her matching roo's chin, I would take one for you! haha.

    Help me with my flock!

    Awwwww they're so sweet! Beautiful birds. I hope you can keep them regardless of sex. At that age, they should be at least attempting to crow. That's usually a sure bet for sex. lol. When they first start to crow it's a very funny noise - almost like an old man coughing. Once you hear it...
