Hello all..I tried my hand at incubating eggs..I was told they were Smooth Sizzle Silkies..5 out of 18 hatched..Not real bad for shipped eggs..Hopefully soon my hubby will build a Silkie house..

They are sooo cute..

My EE's that hatched out in November are only laying green eggs..Anyone else's doing this?

Jumping in..Thank you, good to know...My broody hens and a duck are hatching out chicks...Someone didn't believe me but I have 6 chicks,different stages that my duck hatched..She started hatching in April..I took one away, the other 2 passed away in the pool..Then she hatched 3 more that are in...

Your babies are SUPER CUTE.....Congratulations...
