Have some silkies available if anyone is looking. Have boys and girls but girls must go with a boy.

Like the black one....is it a hen. DO NOT LIKE naked necks. We would take one hen and one rooster. Whick ones ?

 

[FishMtFarm]

The first white is a hen. The NN I'm not sure. The little white split to paint I am pretty sure is a boy. The last grey with red highlights I'm unsure what it is but leaning towards a rooster.

FishMtFarm: One Hen and One Rooster ....Cost? You did say the rooster was FREE in the thread. I think we would plan to take a ride to see them and make a decision. We prefer the LARGER Silkies.
Can you PM me your phone and address.

Anyone here have Seramas? I’m thinking about getting a couple but the hubby is against it so definitely won’t want them in the house. Wondering how well they do in our winters? (I’m a bit north of Albany-near Saratoga and Clifton Park)

Someone on this thread has Seramas - wish I wasn't so old, then I could remember who

Not me! I did hatch seramas this year for Chickenstock for someone who wanted them, but my friend in WV sent me the eggs, I don't have any myself.

They lay around 200 blue eggs/year. The hackles feathers are apparently superb for 'fly tying' - these 2 reasons are why Dr Tom Whiting created them apparently! . You are lucky to have been given them they cost around $200 each usually. Nice gift

That's crazy, considering McMurray hatchery sells them for $5 each.
