Greetings from Manila! Yes, my Silkies and I are city chicks. =D I'm so new to chickening --- 6 months! Prior to signing up, this site has been my go-to forum for my big and small questions.
Talk about firsts.
These are my 3-month-old Silkies. They're from my first (and so far only) breeding pair. And for the first time since the 5 of them hatched
I've long wanted Silkies and I thought I needed a farm to be able to keep a flock. Thanks to this quarantine, I was encouraged to finally get my first chickens --- Silkies --- and raise them in our little backyard.
I also have a 9-month old Phoenix rooster --- a gift from the Silkie breeder. Just recently, like two weeks ago, I got 9 Black Austrolorp chicks to become future egg-layers. They're now 3-weeks old. (Yes, I'll find homes for the surplus roosters.)
Oh, and I have 9 eggs in the nest box. <3
Still on firsts, this is my first chicken forum, and obviously, my first post. I'm happy to be be here! Cheers to all!
Note: There actually are 5 Silkies in the photo. I was grinning because I could count only 4. LOL! #WheresWaldo
