They don't stay teeny baby chicks for very long!

Hi! Welcome to back yard chickens! Glad you decided to join us. I love Silkies!

Male chicks like to pretend they are pullets, so you'll get attached to them and can't give them up when they suddenly become cockerels.

What changes when they become Cockrell besides the noise?

The most noticeable will be their bigger combs, they will also start feeling frisky and make attempts to breed any females. Though older females will fight them and teach them manners.

I'm looking for a pet silkie, a chicken to hold and love and be part of the family, while also having their outdoor time, under my supervision. My animals love baby animals, so a chick would be welcomed and treated gently by all the dogs and cats and kept safe.
