    Silkies in SE Utah need a home

    I live in Monticello and have some silkies that need a home. I have 2 roosters and 1 hen and maybe 2, They are very fluffy black colored. I love my chickens but haven't been able to give these the attention and socializing that they need. Does any one know someone who might like them?

    Tell me about Bantam egg laying, please

    My swwet little silkie, Blanch started laying this week (8 1/2 months old) I got 5 silkies and ended up with only one hen. She gave me 5 beautiful eggs this week. I was surprised how big they were. So proud of her. Now how do I teach her to lay them in the box instead of on the floor of the coop?
