    Showgirl silkie chick question

    I have hatched a showgirl silkie chick that will be raised with old English bantam chicks. We started out with 6 naked neck silkie eggs and ended up with only one hatching. That being said, I was surprised by her markings. What color would you think this little one is going to be? Thanks...

    Brenda or Brandon?

    Good morning! I’ve had my 5 mixed breed girls for a little over a month now and they were born at the end of June. One of my girls, Brenda, is now officially taller than my silkie roo, so I sent a message to the friend that gave me the hens just as an update. I always send him pictures and...

    Single Chicken

    I have a single 9 week old (probably male) silkie. He was hatched at my work, as I work in an educational facility and we were hatching eggs for the students to experience. In this batch, Lil Pecker (my sweetie) was the only to hatch out of 7 eggs we had obtained. I have hand raised him since...
