I live in the United States, and recently adopted a Silkie hen. I planned to show her in state fairs and stocks shows but I also wanted her to join her breed association. I was doing research on the internet but there is no Standard Silkie association for America? Are silkies suppose to be bantams? I am confused I bought a Standard Silkie here i did not purchase it over seas so is there any association that accepts standards silkies? Or did I get ripped off buying a standard? What should I do? Please help.
 
What makes you think she a largefowl rather than a bantam? How old is she, and how much does she weigh?

Silkies are one of the larger bantams. Cocks weigh 36 oz, hens and cockerels 32 oz and pullets 28 oz.
