Newbie chicken owner

[Hotstuffsilkie]

Hey everyone my name is Ruby from CA. I’m a newbie in the chicken world. I have 4 silkies about 4 months or so and 3 babies 5 days old. I did my research and fell in love with these little ones. I own other pets too , I know I’m an animal lover. Very excited to see my girls( crossing fingers) grow up. Here is a picture of them.( sorry for the poopy ladder) No names yet. Looking forward to chatting with all of you.
