Thanks! I think the chicks were too old. I will figure something else out.Maybe she just got the initial shock of seeing so many babies and not wanting to take care of them? Maybe you could try again and see? I have no clue, I haven't had any of our hens taking care of chicks before
Hoping they like it there!Played “musical chickens“ the past several days and made space for Layla‘s chicks to move outside to the brooder on the front porch. They look a little bewildered at their new digs! 9 days old today.
They do look bewildered! Such adorable lil babies!!!Played “musical chickens“ the past several days and made space for Layla‘s chicks to move outside to the brooder on the front porch. They look a little bewildered at their new digs! 9 days old today.
They are called Paint. Based on dominant white. Most Silkies are recessive white.Hoping they like it there!
I have a question, if you don't mind answering it! What kind of pattern is the black dots on the cream-colored chicks? I knew the answer once but I've forgotten it since then.
Thank you! I love the Paint, it reminds me of blueberry muffins for some reason!They are called Paint. Based on dominant white. Most Silkies are recessive white.
These chicks are actually blue paint as their mother was a splash. Their father is a traditional black paint.
I think it’s just the photo. I like to get real close, makes them look bigger than they are.
It does! I never thought of that.Thank you! I love the Paint, it reminds me of blueberry muffins for some reason!
