I have been getting cream to tanish eggs from my silkies. But suddenly, even though I was out there with them, I was chasing around one of my chickens and came upon this white egg in the coop.
Did one of my other hens lay this or is it possible that my silkies laid this?
I had an egg from...
I want to see all the pretty chickens (or any other birds!)

These 3 hens are always together and I thought its cute. But I am just curious as to why they cuddle like this?

Just curious :D i am use to owning...

I got the last two out of the Blue Plymouth Rock bin of pullets from rural king.

I was really hoping these are Plymouth.

Theyre avout 3 to 4 weeks old. We were told they were all silkies but I have only found 3 silkies out of the seven.
The ones with white feet and 4 toes have feathers on their feet but also getting dominant ones on their hips.
They have pea combs as well so I think that narrows it down but I...
