What kind of chicken is that in your avatar? How big does she get? Karen

That is Buck, my Splash Silkie rooster.

He is full size in the pic, and is typical size for a Silkie bantam. Their feathers are very fluffed out so they look much bigger than one they really are. I just weighed him and he weighs 3 pounds, 3 ounces. Hens are a little bit smaller.

He is very tame, not aggressive to people in the least bit. He is one of my favorite chickens. Thanks for asking about him!
