Hi from Yorkshire!

Are you new to chicken keeping?

Hi Yorkshire Coop!

New to Silkies but I have had ex-battery hens before. Unfortunately 4 of the 5 I had were massacred by a fox one day about noon, and it broke my heart. It's taken me about 4 years to decide to try again. I adore these lovely little fluffs - they're so fascinating to watch, skipping about when I let them out to free range. I NEVER leave them alone however, but that's a good excuse to go down the garden with a cuppa and sit and watch them! They're easy to bribe back into the run with some handfuls of corn!!

Thanks for your interest - I think this website is going to get me more involved in things than Facebook!!

Hello! You're not far from me! My 4 year old wanted sillkies. We couldn't find any when we were looking!

Hi. I found them online from a lady who breeds them in the Forest of Dean. The six of them were transported by a special carrier who charged £40 to deliver. The birds were £15 each. The website was birdtrader.co.uk. They had been vaccinated and even they they are notoriously difficult to sex, now they are 4 months old they are all pullets! Yay!! She did well choosing them for me. If you aren't far, feel free to message me to arrange if you would like to bring your little girl to see them. Sue
