PQ or SQ
There is a bird show on Oct 4 in Clanton. They may have silkies for sale over there.
Also "Jaycee Chick" mentioned he need to downsize his silkie flock so he has some for sale but he is only selling chicks and he is up in Florence, AL

This morning one of my cochin which looks like a hen started crowing!!!

Even if she is a hen I can't keep her because she is crowing.


And I think my Splash Silkie might be a boy.

At this rate I will be chickenless again by the end of the year.

Most of them are SQ from Catdance. I really want to go to the Clanton show never been to one. Marty in Leeds was telling me about it,he is one of the Judges at the show. He sold me 3 showgirls.How do I get in touch with Jaycee?

OK can someone explain to me again how chicken math works. The hubby and I got into an argument today, because I told him I am out of feed. He said I have too many chickens.I free range so I only feed once a day and I don't think its too much.They will eat a bit then they are off on their daily chicken chores.You know, moving leaves, cleaning up below the bug zapper. things of that sort.
Our plan was to keep a small flock of 10 to 15 birds, for eggs and the occasional bird to eat. This is what I have:
7 grown hens
2 grown roosters
13 spring chicks (which I suppose technically are adults now, just not laying yet) 4 of which are roos headed to freezer camp.
12 august chicks, which I'm sure 3 are roos, but not sure about the gender of all the rest yet
4 babies I got for the broody to adopt.gender unknown on all
So that's about 10 to 15 birds, right ?

Hubby just can't count!!!

If it's not laying, it's not a chicken.
