Thanks for your input wild. I might put her in there for a couple hours tomorrow since its going to be nice out. I can sit and watch and see what goes on. If he tries to be too rough with her or anything I'll just take her back out. I won't leave her in there unsupervised.

Thanks everyone!

I know Bhep, that's what I'm terrified of :(

He isn't the most aggressive, but not the most gentle with the girls either. I've never had a silkie nor a bantam so I wasn't sure. Right now she is in with my teenage marans. I don't know if its because she looks different but my Faverolles too was attacking her earlier. Pecking her neck and...

Hey everyone, I got a silkie today!! She is 8 months old, I have a 12lb Orpington rooster. Is it OK to put her in there with him or will he hurt her?

Thanks everyone for the help. I rubbed his eye well and he is opening it a bit more. I know its going to take a few days to heal but thanks again so much!

Thank you Matt!!

haha I am sure that was a interesting sight and experience. How do you keep the temperature at the degrees it needs to be?

What do I need ? A light? Shavings? Feeder and Waterer? and a tote?

I am going to have to sweet talk my husband to build me a brooder box. I got two older girls that are 10 weeks old (barred rocks). They are so sweet. I want some more. But all this cold weather they would a box. Hopefully in the next few weeks he will build me one

Very rainy and muddy here! I know we need the rain but boy am I tired of it and so are my chicks!! They look awful :) Good things is they can go under their coop to get a little dry. Then all this talk about us getting 3-5 inches of snow tonight .. I am ready for it to be dry again.. Well I am...

Sorry jaha :( i lost one 3 days ago as well. Its tough.

I hope your precious Ginger makes it!!!

Oh no!!! I sure hope that they don't turn out to be boys!! There is only one solid white one. I had bought five from little birdie in wake forest and gave three away to my husbands best friend. I kept the one that is mostly black and the one that is all white . In the ad they were guaranteed...
