    Silkies- Pullet or roos?

    My silkies are about 14 wks old. I am hoping for all pullets. I know its hard to tell with silkies, but they all look like girls to me. I hope the pics are good enough. It is hard to get them standing still.

    MY CHICKENS ARE KILLING EACH OTHER!!

    My chickens have never displayed this behavior. Something is definitley wrong. You might have a predator. I have two ages of chickens, 1.5yrs and 22wks. They all sleep in their nesting boxes. I hope you figure it out soon.

    do they look ready to lay?

    No egg for me either I did go to my local grange and buy two fake eggs. I filled them with sand and put them in the nesting boxes. Hopefully that will trigger some egg laying. Here is a pic I took of a few of the girls tonight.

    Most expensive eggs, ever!
