I started my flock of silkies in June with 3 chicks and 2/3,turned out to be boys. I tried again in September with 4 more chicks and 3/4 turned out to be boys... I guess I just have terrible luck. I'm trying to find someone selling pullets/laying hens that are silkies in Ohio for pick up or another state that will ship them. nothing special just pet quality. I really love my silkies but 5 Roos out of 7 is not gonna be any fun for my hens when they start laying. Thanks in advance!
Wow, bad luck. I'm sure there are silkie breeders in OH. There are breeders here you can contact. http://agriculture.mo.gov/animals/pdf/poultry_yearbook.pdf You could post here too. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/12049/ohio-come-on-buckeyes-let-me-know-your-out-there
