Are Silkies Very Broody?

[Mrs. Fluffy Puffy]

I bought 5 Partridge silkie chicks Friday and I also got 1 Buff Silkie Hen and 1 White silkie rooster and I already had another white silkie rooster besides the one I got. I wanted silkies to be my broody chickens that would hatch out babies for me and adopt chicks. I know some silkies won't go broody but will most go broody and adopt chicks? Thanks

Yes, yes they are.

So will most of them set and adopt chicks? I really want a chicken that will take chicks even if she isn't broody. Will they do that?

Does a bear sh......oh nevermind. The answer is yes.

My silkie was ecstatic when I gave her some chicks. She had been broody for a year.
