He's just about to turn 1 in the next week. I'm going to get him on a scale this week just to know how much he weighs thanks for the fun facts. It seems that were gonna have him for a long time then.
He's been through 2 molts already, and the patch of missing feathers has grown and I have not found a nesting spot so that's why I'm a bit concerned about the missing feathers.
Hello Everyone,
Last March I got a gosling Gus Gus or Goose Goose as my sister named him, he was sold to me as an African goose but looking at pictures I do not think he's an African goose, he looks more like a brown Chinese. Well I only got him (I say him but I'm not sure, so if someone can...
Honestly I thought so too. It act so much like a chicken until it started crowing. Since it's tiny it even sleeps under two of my brahmas it grew up with.

Lol. No she's a very clean little chicken, my brother takes care of her during the day and he says all of our other chickens will have very muddy and dirty feet while Silker and her Brahma friends(who also have fuzzy toes) don't have any mud or dirt on them😂. Also it was really late at night and...
She is fluffier during the day this was a fairly rainy day so she was kinda matted. She is also still growing in a fair amount of feathers surprisingly, so im excited to see how poofy she gets.
No worries! I think she is a hen based on just watching her, she hardly ever stands tall, she only does this if her two brahma friends strayed to far away and she can't find them :). It's funny cause she's a bantam and her brahma friends are going to be full sized and she's currently half their...
Hi I have a 11 week old Silkie named Silker, would love to know if I am right to say she's a hen? These pictures where taken at night and she was a little wiggly.
