I’m picking up two chicks Feb 20, so I was hoping I could find them about the same age, really wanted to avoid. But two wouldn’t be bad, I could always keep one for myself, I suppose!
I’d love for him to have a few but 3 is their limit & his momma would like two egg layers.
I’ve never had silkies, would the one be okay with two of another breed?
Thank you! He’s a very sweet kid. He likes that I can “make chickens” when his sister told him I put eggs in the incubator & when he saw silkies he got so excited. He’s never had a pet so what better first pet than a chicken!
Really?? Oh, you are awesome! :love
I just wanted one. It's for a therapy pet for my friend's brother. I'm going to raise two layers for her mother & he's going to be 21 this year but he's like a little kid & wanted to have a breed he picked out, so I showed him Silkies & he loves that they look...
Hey everyone! I've been gone a bit, medical problems. Hope ya'll have been doing well!:thumbsup
I'm looking to hatch again, anyone around Sacramento have a handful of silkie eggs? My R-Com only holds 3.
Thanks!
My friends work at the Western Feed Store in East Sac& they sell chicks seasonally, if you ever want to check them out when you're ready
Also, welcome! Maybe sometime I'll see you at a feed store!
I'll check with my roommate, he had some interest in baby pigies!
Just throwing this out again:
My friend is looking for an adult male Runner for her dad's two females. No color preference. He will have a nice forever home.
Sacramento & surrounding areas. We can come pick him up.
Thanks!
I will have to weigh them next time, but I'm finding that there's not much meat on them to use as their poultry intake alone. They eat the bone also, so I haven't deboned a bird yet. That will have to be my next challenge!
I wish I had the room right now to raise chickens for them! That was why...
I keep the females for eggs & pets & the males tend to get fattened up & used for meat for my dogs & cat as they are raw fed...although, on occasion, I am guilty of keeping my favorite special roos if they get along with the girls well and don't tear them up.
Oh, yes! My babies are held &...
