Glad BYC was so helpful in resolving your foot issue with your chicks. Since you obviously love silkies, you may want to peruse the "Silkie thread," for more information and great photos of this beautiful and popular breed. Welcome to the flock.

Thank you all for the warm welcome....im a bit challanged with the web so please understand. first let me say the splints worked ! Im thrilled to see the toes straightened out. Ive been quite busy with all our new babies. 5, 1 day old bantams were added exactly 2 weeks apart from our silkies.
im trying to find out why 3 of my silkies have feathering on their feet and 3 dont As of yet.... hatch dates of 4/1/15 purchased from our feed store locally sourced we were told. could someone assist me please ?. We purchased a beautiful 8x12 foot amish shed they delivered saturday, customizing for our babes.we r drawing up plans for a 12x20 foot aviary/chick chick pen..busy busy bees. Im very excited to blend these babies with my love of gardening. I look forward to your thoughts , and encouragement.
Thank you!
