He isn't the most aggressive, but not the most gentle with the girls either. I've never had a silkie nor a bantam so I wasn't sure. Right now she is in with my teenage marans. I don't know if its because she looks different but my Faverolles too was attacking her earlier. Pecking her neck and throwing his feet up at her. But he is only 4 months old.

Be careful..Silkies are a little fragile, those bigger roosters can hurt her.

Hey everyone, I got a silkie today!! She is 8 months old, I have a 12lb Orpington rooster. Is it OK to put her in there with him or will he hurt her?

If he tries to mate her, which he most likely will, she will get hurt. She may even end up dead. Most bantam hens, especially silkies should be kept away from standard size roosters.
