Marans- would they get along in a mixed pen with Silkies? Billy

 

[Soaring Chicks]

I had my first ones in a mixed pen. I did not have anything as small as silkies,but I don't see why you could not if raised together. berkeleysprings has silkies some he could tell you more. now I have put other adults in with the adult marans I had and they worked out the pecking order then everything was fine after that. hope this helps.

I painted a "sandwich board" sign and placed it between the steps and loading dock
at Gower's Feed. I thought that it would help to remind local customers of the event.
It could also be placed out near the street on the day of the event.

sweet! I got the go ahead from the landowner to place a billboard out front... there is already 4x4 posts from a previous sign. I guess I'll try to crank something out tomorrow to place out there.


Thanks to all who are getting the word out. This is a community event and it takes every bit of all of our efforts to make it successful. I will be dropping by certain farms (menageries) tomorrow .. ... you know, those places with a gazillion chickens running in the front yard... ya know, like mine

and will be passing out little 4x6 hand -outs I printed up. If you know anyone like that near your house, drop in and give them a heads up on the event. Im sure they'll be happy to hear and you may make a new friend... or get locked up in some basement

better make sure you bring someone with you
