I have a pair of Silkies for sale. You can have your own breeding program!

What are you asking for the pair? Are they male and female? Where are you located, Bay City?

I am near Bay City. I want $40 for the pair. I could make someone a good deal, though.

MITES! My birds have mites! Guess I'll be spraying the group and the coop by the weekend. Yuck! At least I found them before anyone got sick. Mary

Good to find before it gets any colder.

I didn't notice any on my youngsters when I moved them, we put leg bands on so I think we would have seen them had they been there. Better check the older girls though.

I took my white cock bird to work to have help trimming his spurs, and in the much better light there, say a few. They were really tiny, maybe just hatched? Only saw them on his white feathers. Mary

Get a head light, check after dark, parting feathers down to skin.

My broody bantam hen just hatched 3 out of 3 eggs yesterday/today. I've been so busy I haven't been paying attention I knew it was getting close to hatch time but I didn't mark it on the calender. Hubby just called to tell me there's 3 chicks in the coop w Boots. Not sure what I'm going to do with them really didn't need more I'm trying to down size my flocks before winter.
Last time I separated her in a kennel with her chicks but I think I'm just going to let her and nature do it's thing this time. She was and is good at putting the rooster (dad) in his place.
I'll post pictures later when I get home and can take a few.

coop is cute but as said before looks small, maybe they had banties?

Welcome h2o, not to close to Kazoo, we are in Belding,

Hi, I am from the St. Johns area and was wondering if anyone nearby sells any silkie and polish eggs for hatching.

Hi, willjr, welcome to Mi. sight, ,,, no silkies or polish, but keep checking someone may have some to sell,

Was in and out of coop a dozen times this morning,
as soon as I sat back down upstairs, had a visitor.
Foiled by the run!
