Any Advice for a wanna-be Breeder?

[bragabit]

I LOVE chickens. I live in a super duper rural area, and I have an egg laying flock that I LOVE. I have fallen in love with pictures of Silkies. I would love to get a pair (or two) and start trying to breed. I haven't seen any breeders for Silkies anywhere near me. I would also love to have the silkies to set eggs for my layers. I would love any advice, do's & dont's and where to buy initial breeding stock.

thanks

Make sure to see pictures of what you would be getting if it is from an unknown breeder.
