I just got a few Silkie chicks and my daughter told me last night that she would like to try showing them. I think that it would be fun, and I would enjoy breeding them and working towards really awesome show quality stock, and we have a little experience in breeding for shows because we breed/show mini horses... I know not the same, but we understand about show quality and keeping only the best for breeding stock etc. I just need to know where to start. We got our chicks on 2/15 and they were about 3 or 4 days old. The pictures are ones I took last night. I don't know if it is too soon to really be able to tell about quality, but if anyone who is experienced in showing Silkies could give me their initial impression of these chicks that would be wonderful. I know that if our chicks are even decent we will be lucky, lol.... just thought its worth a shot in the dark
Thanks!
Also, if anyone has any good resources about showing/breeding SQ Silkies, it would be greatly appreciated.
