Hello everybody.
I have 2 silkies Babs and Margo. They are free range and have the run of our large garden but get locked away at night safe from predators. Unfortunately Babs is rather thin and the vet told me to try to get her to gain weight. She eats dried mealworms and her usual chicken feed and scratch grains. She is very active and lays each day except for when she is broody. My silkies are fussy eaters and will not eat scraps from the table. ANY suggestions from anybody on ideas what to feed them in order to assist little Babs to gain some weight.
