    Actually me and my DH are huge Star Trek fans, all the Silkies and Showgirls are named after the characters . Our roosters consist of Worf, Capt. Kirk, Spok (showgirl), and Capt. Archer. It all started with my first Silkie Tribble and just went from there, LOL.

    Yup, she is the chick on the left. And I almost sold her too! She looked really ugly as a teenager, no head poof and just scraggly looking. Decided to hold onto her just because she was frizzled and overnight she filled out. And now she is my best broody, so you really never know! And now I have...

    Ok, this morning when I went out to feed the flock I kept hearing this little peep. And lo and behold, my silkies hatched a chick! I really wasn't expecting it, they kept setting and forgetting the eggs, but left them just in case. Well this is in my BBS pen with a Cuckoo rooster and a Black...

    Ok, I'm really wanting to show silkies down the road. So was wondering if you all could tell me what you thought about my up and coming group. I know I need some better stock, but would like some input on what could be better, what I should be looking for, etc. I did a little photo shoot today...

    Ok, here is an updated pic of my mystery color. Everyone said Porcelain before, does it still look porcelain? It has a nice light blue underfluff. And still hoping it still turns out to be a girl . T'Pol is now 4 months old now. And I don't think she came out to bad for being a hatchery chick!

    My latest hatch! One Silkie and one Showgirl! This is my very first Showgirl chick, I'm doing the happy dance. This is my first showgirl after two groups of eggs. Even though this wasn't the greatest hatch only two out of seven eggs, very happy I got a showgirl, and a very pretty silkie!

    Thanks all! Anyone looking for a rooster Now I'm up to three boys, and looking at him some more, I think he might be a really dark blue. My other boy is such a light blue he looks black next to him.

    Ok, I have someone interested in purchasing a black silkie pullet. I have two silkies, one I'm almost sure is a pullet the other I go back and forth on.

    Some more pics of my Silkie group! It was so nice out today I was able to get a few nice pics of everyone. I am pretty sure this one is a little boy, named Capt. Kirk. Still going back and forth on blue or lavender though I just love this little girl, named Guinan. She is just a ball of...

    My up and coming silkie flock is growing up so fast! These guys were hatched out from the end of Feb to mid March. Still unsure of boys/girls and a few colors. If anyone has any ideas of either please let me know! I tried to get pics of everyone but they just didn't want to cooperate. And the...

    When this little one hatched out it looked partridge, but now its a dark smokey grey with gold on its chest and wing tips. Any idea on color? And this one hatched out the same time, sibling to the one above. They looked identical as chicks (partridge looking) and now this one is blue?

    I got a nice shot of most of my silkie crew, lots of blues and blacks with a few odd balls in there. I just love this pic, looks like the silkies are talking to my top hen on the other side of the fence.
