Yes, you must get one!!! i cannot say enough good things about them!!!!!!
They are not silkies, but an old breed from turkey, but they have a very similar apperance exept they re hard feathered.
They are very much a pet breed, and tame very easily!
You will eventually have to trim the crest, same as a silkie, in order to ensure escaping from preadotors is possible. They have very feathery feet and are just adorable!

Wikipedia has a great article on them, with alot of the details I can't tell you now because I'm on mobile! :/
They come in white and black, but black is super rare.
