How can they be so smart (once in a while) and so incredibly dumb at the same time??
You must share your story. I have never known a silkie to be smart in any way at all.
I don't know about Silkies not being smart. Widget has managed twice to survive 2 attacks. One when the silkies were attacked and Widget managed to go and hide and the second when my other flock was all killed and widget was pancaked in the back of the house hiding. So Widget has to be a little smart to survive twice. Meanwhile I have an OEG who refuses to come out of a tree during a storm.
When Widget is out and down on the floor if she gets too hot (central ac is broken in parts of house gettin new ducts) she knows to run/waddle/hop down to my room, walk up her ramp (big tall bed) and go to her pillow.
Yes Widget is spoiled. I'm thinking too much so. She snatched bologna from my daughter, makes the dog and cat move if she want's their spot, don't like bread or frozen vegies....her vegies have to be cooked.
