    silkie sexing

    Our Elvis started out as Matilda, but as her crest kept growing she just made us think of Elvis more and more. So if Elvis was a chicken, I'm sure she is it!

    From Cochins to Silkies

    Me too, I don't think I ever met Fred, but I saw him in all the magazines. I had the same lines of afghans. I love my two silkies and posted a photo of the "bluer/silvery" one yesterday. I got two cute sizzle chicks last weekend. They are the sweetest things. Now we are 5 an apparently gender...

    Is it a rooster?

    Our Cochin hen who's egg laying has recently dropped to a couple a week, has started trying to crow in the mornings! What's up with that? A gender confused hen? We know its her, I snuck out when the crowing started and she was the only one awake. Our other four chickens are all babies.

    Silkie breeding, genetics & showing

    I went to see the breeder I got my two silkies from yesterday and came home with two 6 week old smooth sizzles. Both are shades of what we would call blue in Afghans. One light one dark. I'd love to post some photos and will try to get some tomorrow. So far pretty good on the introductions.

    From Cochins to Silkies

    Thanks for the welcome! Husband was working from home a few days and with the recent cranky neighbor stuff......well, I will miss my girls but not the noise. Love the silkies, I've raised and shown afghan hounds for more than 40 years so a silkie is as close to an afghan chicken as you get. And...
