Lol I actually live 10 minutes from him. I have 2 paints and a gray. Very nice person! I have an egg auction up with some of his paint eggs in there. I even have paint eggs hatching this weekend that he gave me.
I saw that...

Thank you, and I'll definitely take that into consideration.
I had two mini Splashes. They laid very poorly and none of their eggs were fertile. All the dwarf birds I've had were unhealthy. You may want to consider cross breeding and then culling heavily. Neat project and I hope...

What Silkies have you been looking at?! O.o
Silkies around here are about the size of a 20 some week old Red Sex Link! maybe a hair smaller!
What she wants to achieve is a Serama sized Silkie which I think would be nice to have!
Okay so I'm not the only who thinks they're pretty...

I live in a town house and don't have a large enough yard, which is why I started with Seramas (and of course temperment) I just thought it would be nice for other people who enjoy silkies but don't have a large yard.
personally, our silkies are far to dumb to room a yard... they'd...

You might want to start with pure dutch silkies. They are really small.... I have one that I thought was very young yet she was laying. I do have one tiny grey cockerel if you want. I can't guarantee he'll stay small though.
Thank you! I'll have to check them out, I've never seen one...

If anyone has any unusually small silkies hatch out that you don't want to keep let me know. Trying to a Miniature Silkie project which would help if I could find some small ones to begin with. Already found one small splash pullet and would like to find more. Males or females would nice. Thank you!
