I am assuming that by "mixed Silkie" you mean a cross between a Silkie and something else? If so, here is my baby. Her name is Alexandra. She is Silkie crossed with SOMETHING!!! LOL Not sure but I think, maybe, EE. She is probably around 16 weeks old but I am really not sure since I bought her already fully feathered and tiny. She is black. VERY black. Feathers, skin, everything, and soooooo pretty. These are cell phone pics and really don't do her justice. I may change them for better ones later if I can.

Yep she looks like an EE cross.

this is my rooster, cicero. ive been told he is a sizzle...a golden duckwing frizzle cochin-silkie cross....or something like that. LOL

She is about 4 years old. As a chick, she was stepped on badly. After that incident, she couldn't keep up with her mom and I took her inside. She is a half silkie, part EE and who knows what. She went blind at gradually at age 3. She finds food and water by the sound of other chickens eating and drinking. I found her sitting on eggs!! Her family has a long history of extreme broodiness (she is a 3rd generation mutt on one side). She doesn't growl because she can't see who it is, but she is definitely sitting. I want to let her brood, it will give her a purpose. She can't always see the eggs that need to be rolled under. I think she might actually hatch something. She happens to be brooding under a roost

Gorgeous bird tfpets!

If you don't mind me asking...what breed of bird is that in the background? I can only see legs and the bottom part of it.

Heres my handsome little man! He's a Silkie/Polish mix. He should win because when hes around no hen has to worry about being attacked by scary shoe laces...

Also..Hes very sick right now..the big girl hens hurt/ate his toe....so hes inside and getting meds and every time he hears a hen outside do her proud egg laying cackle he gets all flusterd and upset. he loves his girls even when they dont love him..

Now thats a faithful man!!!
