Giant Silkie Project.

[MysteryChicken]

I'm gonna have to breed the Brahmas to my Large Fowl Silkie rooster before I butcher the Brahmas so I can have a few of the F1 crosses to keep the project going.

I need to make space in the mixed flock coop so I can add the Malays. I have 3 Brahmas, but also have a rooster, & a hen to butcher too.

Wishing you the best on this... we have ordered Saipan. Hopefully they will contribute to the big chicken project.

Nice, still a large bird. The ancestor of the Malay, & other Gamefowl breeds.

Thanks, I didn't want to knock the flock down, an expansion would have been better, but my dad is stubborn about turning the other half of the shed into another half of the coop. Their henhouse isn't really half, it's alittle smaller.

The Silkie Girls like the rooster I put them with, which is good.



Figured out how I can keep two of the Brahmas.

Butcher List, so far.

1, Brahma

2, Cuckoo Marans

1, EE cockerel

1, Barred Rock cross


I'm waiting for my sister to chose one of her bird's to add to the list.

I'll take pictures of the girls with my F1, Project Giant Silkie cross rooster later.

Excuse his rough look, he's been fighting with my Easter Egger that's very Gamey.
