    Hi! Fairly new to chickens, very new to byc!

    Hi I'm a new Silkie owner in rhode island! I was never into birds ( they actually freaked me out) till we got some chickens to eat our backyard bugs. I fell in love instantly and now I'm hooked! Currently trying to sex my birds and I think we have 6 Roos and one hen! Yikes!
