Amy~~ couldn't agree with you more
I know I'm suppose to try to at least "break even" when it comes to my Silkies....I also know that will never happen because I, too, love to see the pleasure it brings a child when they're able to buy a BQ/SQ bird from me for little to nothing. To me~~thats...
ChickenPox~~I know you're in GA, but don't know what part....there's a show being held in Dalton,GA next weekend, if thats near you. There will be Silkies for sale and an opportunity to meet other Silkie breeders
Amy~~if you come across the article R/T the brown hue I'd love to read it. I had heard about the sun possibly causing it, but here in the mountains, the way my pens/runs are situated, my birds get very little sunlight
Thanks so much for starting the "black silkie" thread. I don't breed any blue or splash, but I do love my blacks.
Can someone explain to me why/how my gorgeous inky black pullet with alot of beetle green in her wings & tail can molt out to display brown hues???
