Minnie's Flock
Hi, I will be writing the rest of my chickens and guineas on this page, but I wanted to get started. We know you can't tell very easily on the genders while they are young, but we usually just go back the attuide of the bird, and name them that way, but we pick names that can be...

Hi!
I'm Silkie-Guinz and We have right now, 2 Guineas, that are about 5 weeks old and both pearls..We had at first 9, but we had to find 7 of them new homes. Then we have 9 more Guineas that are getting close to about 2 weeks, I think. They are 5 pied pearls, 3 pearls, and 1...
terriblhb, Thank you.
chicmom, oh no, I'm not offended. I go over sometimes and just watch, other times when I'm feeding and watering all the animals, and I've never seen them fight. In fact, I don't remember ever seeing them fight. At all. I do know from our first batch before we sold them...
We have 2 Pearl guineas that are our oldest, that will be 10 weeks Saturday that we got from our local feed store. Then we have our youngest guineas, that we hatched out that are pied pearls, a lavender and some pearls. They will be 8 weeks tomorrow.
A little bit of back story about how it...

BEAUTIFUL Egg!!!
(Oh and adorable silkie!)
Thank you. Yes she is really adorable, but if you're up close to her she looks a bit.... freaky with that purple face of her's. lol. But I love her eyes, though. So pretty.
We have a two year old white silkie that we named Queen, and she laid an egg a few days ago, but she laid it on the ground and it broke from falling and hitting the ground.
So since then I've put some golfballs in the nest boxes for her, and every morning when I would go out, I would show her...
I have a red silkie chick who's probably three or more weeks old(I need to check the calander... ) and a few week ago I noticed that it's comb and wattles were a dark purple color, and bigger. It was quite strange because out of the rest of the silkies we got from the same person we got this one...
We felt the earthquake over here, we haven't felt a earthquake in quite a few years, and I've never felt one before..
at first it sounded like a HUGE truck pulled into our yard so I was going to look out the window to see if someone pulled up, but when the house started shaking I pretty much...
Thank you dawg53, and Sonoran Silkies. Thanks for the link, dawg53.
We went out earlier this evening because it was getting late, and went and got Garden & Poultry Dust, that has permethrin. Me and my Mom spent about two hours outside, cleaning the 3 brooders and dusting 24 chicks.
Anyway...
We have a black silkie chick that we call Jack that's about five weeks old, and when we picked him up today, his back has hardly any feathers, and he has a few scabs on his back. So I gave him to my Mom, and we were standing beside our open door, trying to get a better look and I seen a very...
