    Catching your chickens,

    We have a shed that we turned into their house and fenced off an area of the yard for them. All I have to do is walk into their coop and they follow me in. Whenever I go into their area they follow my every step!!

    Hi Mike, I use a red light that shines on one side of their area, that way they can get away from it if they are a little to warm. I got mine at Walmart. Hope that helps, you are going to love having chicks!!!

    Cherry Bird, if you would like to have another Silkie I would give him to you. He is in my backyard right now crowing up a storm and my neighbors are going to have a fit. Your Silkie might like having another of her kind!!

    1 month old silkie won't go in coop

    1 month old silkie won't go in coop

    I live in the Lakewood area. I have one silkie roo (just found out) and would like to get a hen about the same age as him. I got him at a feed store and he was the only silkie left. Do you know of a place that sells them in our area, it would be nothing to drive to Olympia! Thank you!
