    Very pretty!!!!! She looks awesome! I am so sorry about your hen, but she is so lucky to have you back. Poor girl. She was probably full of mites and worms. I am so tired of some individuals not caring for animals. So sad :(

    I love the color of that light blue one. I might keep it if it turns to be a female Interesting... I wish I knew more about their background. When I bought my rooster, the breeder told me he came from a black pen... probably not . I have 20 plus eggs cooking in the incubator from the same duo...

    Thank you. Right now he is my only roo from my BBS pen, so I will continue to hatch their eggs and sell the chicks that are partridges. By fall, I am hoping to get a blue rooster from Elektra (girl from my avatar) who died few weeks ago. It is probably going to be a great match. Will see...

    Yep, I think you nailed it because I got two new chicks today and one is very similar to the one in the picture and the other one look like a very light blue/ silver. I will take a picture tomorrow. I have more chicks to come from her, but I just don't understand how I get those chicks. Mom...

    Very nice SG. I remembered about that little guy... I have never seen any sizzle or frizzle either, so I can't really give you any input but she / he cute as a button. I have never owned a silkie with a nail in the middle, but I have heard of it. I would avoid breeding him/ her because it will...

    Thank you. I will it it a try next time. Yes, I am always worried about the soap. Nice thanks! He looks nice, but his wings seems very low. I know roosters tend to have them low, but if you can take another picture it will help. She is gorgeous When I candle them, I like to use glove (like...

    I just browsed the ASBC booklet and found two breeders in Knoxville I don't know if it is ok to just write their info publically, so if you want PM me and let me know other cities close by and I will do my best to help you out. Have you tried on Facebook? There are several silkie groups.

    I would love to be NPIP but I am pretty sure I am excedding my chicken quota. If I decide to have someone to come to my place to test my silkies, will that open a can of worm?
