I have one acting strange right now. I have given her electrolytes and am hoping that helps. At times she is running around, eating, and drinking and then she is kind of out of it.
This is my Silkie/EE hen, Callie. She just turned 1 last month. She lays a mint green egg. She's a wonderful layer. Every other day she gives me an egg. I have heard Silkie are not great layers, but her momma (A pure white Silkie) laid everyday.
I have two silkie mixes from my white silkie hen and my EE. They both lay mint green eggs. a little larger than their mothers.
One of them is my profile picture.
I have 2 silkie/ee hens and they are wonderful. They are sweet babies, and great layers. They lay everyday. I have a bunch of their eggs in the incubator right now. I am excited to see what turns out.

I just want to thank everyone for their great advice on here. My first ever hatch started yesterday. So far out of my 14 eggs there are 13 hatched. I still have one egg that is moving around so I'm hoping for 14.
