Hey everyone! My name is Garret Trezona. This is my first time joining the BYC website/forum. My family and I are first time chicken owners. We recently adopted 3 Silkie hens and 1 silkie Rooster. Now I am no means an expert on the different breeds, that was just what I was told they were. I will post some pictures.
We live on 3/4's of an acre out in the Redlands in Homestead, Fl. I have an old fenced in area that is about 12' x 12' that was used for pool equipment storage that we are converting into a home for our chickens. I am trying to make it the best possible living area for them. I was told by other family members who also have chickens that we should wait 1-2 weeks before letting them roam our fenced in yard throughout the day so that is what we are doing.
Any advice at all is greatly appreciated. We are also doing as much research that we can.
Here are a couple pictures of them. Please let me know what you think!
