She’s also super tiny. I know they are bantams and all, but she is just so small!

Not all silkies are Bantams. I have bantam, medium, & standard sized.

I thought bantams were most common in the US, which is why I said that. I believe she’s also hatchery stock. But compared to my silkie cockerel, who isn’t that big, she’s a dwarf.

Poof, my mom's silkie hen is 4¼lbs so that puts her in the medium category.
