To me they look like nonbearded silkies to me, two look like they could go either way. The big one is a beautiful roo and the one with the big old poof looks like a hen to me. If you could have closer picture
Hey guys! I currently don't have any silkies, and I never have. But I am very interested in them. I have a few questions.
1. Can they fly? I have heard somewhere that they can't because of their feather but that could just be a myth or something. They aren't the best, some can roost some don't...
mind was bullied badly by Easter Eggers who she was raised with. She got all her head feathers pulled out and beak and comb bloodied. So always the bullied ones haha if bullies not so good. She's the biggest of them all too so I don't know why. Now I have some cute silkie/buff Orpington cross...
This might be late, but I have a sweet buff Orpington with my silkies so it really depends on the Orpington hen. My Orpington sometimes cuddles with them or roosts haha.
