Just got my order from Ideal Poultry (FAST shipping, chicks arrived in great condition, they look pretty good to me quality-wise too--not bad for hatchery birds, at least). I am so excited! They are unbelievably adorable. I haven't been able to get any really good pics yet, but here are a couple to tide you over till I can. By the way, is it standard practice to send splashes in a blue order? I know it is for Holderread Waterfowl, didn't know if that was true for chickens. I'm pretty sure three of these silkies are splash...
This one is splash, right? Silvery white down, black skin and beak...
And an especially crummy picture of a dark blue one...
