Kentuckysilkies, that's great news! I've been suspicious of the same; she's recently started hunkering down and wiggling when I pick her up, and I heard somewhere that is a sign that a chicken is about to start laying. Is that true? I can't wait!!!

For anyone who is curious and originally hazarded a guess about my partridge silkie, the final answer is HEN. She laid her first egg! Thanks for all the feedback.
