They are asils. Gamefowl are popular in my area and sell for even more money than silkies, but it's hard for normal chicken people to breed and sell them.
Can someone explain me why silkies are such a hot market? I see people selling them in my area all the time, for $20-$50 each, and they seem to sell fast. That's more money than I can get for a turkey. I have nothing against silkies but I am wondering who keeps buying them.
