Both silkies are very sweet. They basically just crow, something I can't
have in my neighborhood. The black one bites a few times when you grab
him. It doesn't hurt and I think he doesn't even know what he is doing.
Once you have either one in your arms they are very calm and very cute.
They act like full size roos more than my actual full size roos. They crow
more. They attack(molest) the hens more. They will even take on a full size roo
in a skuffle and usually win the fight. An especially funny thing is when
one sounds the bok bok bok alarm they both go crazy.
I've been so tempted to lop off their heads. If they were standard roos
they would be dinner but we are not going to eat Silkie. I REFUSE TO
KILL AN ANIMAL WITHOUT EATING IT OR NOT IN SELF DEFENSE.
I might have done it already if they were really mean. I've grabbed them a few
times when I was mad but end up sitting and petting them, pleading with them
to stop crowing.
Sorry Tundrachick. I'm wimping out of the black chicken soup. I did bookmark
the page for future reference however.
Yup, it's crazy.
I will ship if someone tells me how. I'd like them to go as a pair. They
will be missed, except for the crowing.
They are definately Bantams (about 2 pounds each). They do not come
after you. They don't mind being picked up out of the coop or run.
