That's exactly how I think about them, great moms sure, but only if they are smart enough to live long enough to become mommas 
I've had one Silkie; she was the lowest chicken on the totem pole, obviously not the brightest crayon in the box. She proved my point the day a hawk tried to nab one of the hens, instead of listening to my roosters the silly little thing practically fainted in the middle of the lawn  I thought for sure that she was the one the hawk had attacked but as soon as I got over to her she got up and wattled away 
I re-homed her to a safer home so she might have a better chance at surviving 
I want a broody momma, but I'll try out a Banty Cochin before I even look at a Silkie again!
This is the little troublesome Yeti 

She's adorable! I would love to have her.

In the defense of the Silkies, they are fairly naive at times, but that may have a bit to do with the fact that they can't see too well.

Or maybe i'm just givig them too much credit.

I have some free chicks for enrolled 4-H kids. I have 2 bantam buff Brahmas that are a few weeks old, there are bantam single combed Rhode Island Red chicks hatching today, and I have some AOV bantam Faverolles that are 1-3 weeks old. Let me know if you're interested!

Just an FYI - the Brahma chicks are gone, but I still have 8 bantam single combed Rhode Island Red chicks for FREE to any enrolled 4-H kid!! As well as a few of the AOV Faverolles.

We are in Toledo, Oregon. Just a mere 7 miles from the beautiful Oregon Coast. We have 25 hens and four roosters...everything from Silkie and Sebright to my favorite the always personable Speckled Sussex.

I have a pair of bantam Ameraucanas available if anyone is interested. Wanted to post them here first before they went on CL. They are a year old. Black cock and blue hen. The cock won Reserve Champion AOCCL at the Stevenson show last October.....





I don't have any really good pics of the hen right now, but here she is as a youngster....



I've gotten some really gorgeous babies out of these birds!! $40 for the pair.
