HI WELCOME. YOU WILL JUST LOVE THE SILKIES THEY ARE VERY NICE:) Thanks!!!!

I have raised many kinds and colors of Silkies. They are just like other chickens but I found they don't do well with the larger breeds and bantams that are real active. They are quiet and not" pushy "enough and don't compete well for food and nests. They crow but their crow isn't very loud...

You're gonna love them! They're one of the sweetest breeds out there. Have fun with 'em! Paula Thanks Paula!!! I sure we will!

Hangin with my Peeps, that is one beautiful blue boy. Silkie chicks are the sweetest your really going to enjoy your silkies That White Silkie is beautiful and cute as well!!!! Thanks for the post.

I am also new to silkies and I have three right now living in my garage until we get the bantam coop done. They are VERY sweet little things and everything seems to pick on them except my polish hen. She is very nice to them so I put them all together. I take care of them as I do my older...

On a serious note, I would advocate paying close attention to their feet too, as their foot feathering can harbor ouchie things...burrs and other prickly things, against their legs and toes. Someone here posted a thread with detailed instructions and photos about bathing them. That has already...

I just wanted to add, we sometimes keep ours in the house in a big rubbermaid tub just for fun and to enjoy them more. We will probably do it more in the winter! The kids love them and they don't mind being played with. Yea ours are still learning what people are!!! But, I make it a point to...

Congratulations! I love my little Silkies. I always treated them just like any other chicken, as far as their care. I have a huge mixed pen of bantams and standard sized and the Silkies definately hold their own just fine. I keep all my chickens penned up, but it's especially important with...

was wondering does anyone have any good or bad response to feeding Dumor Starter/Grower 20% to chicks up to 10 wks of age? Is something better?

No one mentioned this: SILKIES WILL STEAL YOUR SOUL! Thanks!!!! And love the pic!!!! Very cute!!!!

Miller, no need for you to apologize about anything! You did nothing more than ask a simple question. If you have any other questions about your new silkie, pm me and I will be happy to REPLY in a helpful, respectful, non-conceited manner. Thanks I certainly will do!!! Thanks Suebee

Ok, I would not like to communicate anymore about the confusion of the ealier thread conversation. Sounds like you need to pick up a copy of Storeys Guide to Raising Chickens, or some other "how to" book. And/or start Googling "chicken care." There is NO WAY that anyone can tell you everything...

These are the ways my silkies are different from my other chickens. They don't roost up on a roost but I have 2 by 4 pieces in their pen that they sit on. They cuddle together to sleep. I trim their feathers around their eyes so they can see better. Be careful not to trim too close. They...

Our Silkies are in a giant aquarium. They ahve pine beding, water, and a feeder full of Dumor Starter/Grower 20%. They are in my house, well in the kitchen. They are completely funny to watch. They are doing very well.

Anyhow, enough of is mess. All we wanted was some insight on the breed and to make sure they were like any other chick. Sounds like you need to pick up a copy of Storeys Guide to Raising Chickens, or some other "how to" book. And/or start Googling "chicken care." There is NO WAY that anyone...

Sounds like you need to pick up a copy of Storeys Guide to Raising Chickens, or some other "how to" book. And/or start Googling "chicken care." There is NO WAY that anyone can tell you everything you need to know in just a few responses. All of this should have been done BEFORE you got the...

Sorry that you feel that we are not compitent or something. We just wanted to know some thing specificly about White Silkies. We have other chickens, but some one had made the comment that Silkies were different to care for. We don't need to get a care for chicks guide or anything, We have...

Well, we are fedding them Dumor Starter Grower. Should they be given anything else, such as Vitamins or anything? We have been holding them and petting them and our kids are doing the same. I guess we need to know everything.
