Thank You for sharing....your white? Is actually a PAINT which that color is hard to get.If you are looking for eggs to hatch,there are some very good breeders here who are kind enough to sell very good quality hatching eggs here on BYC .Mbrobbins and Catdance have nice stock. And 6 months is still kinda young give them a little more time,silkies mature very slowly Good luck
After seeing all you guys' fluffy amazing silkies I'm embarrassed to post mine But alas, it'll be a good learning experience. They are all about 6 months old and the hens just started laying. (Don't worry, I've been eating the eggs, not hatching!)
My black hen. Way too many hard feathers but her earlobes are good! I think she has a cute little body.
My white? hen. Her head fuzz (you can tell I'm new...head fuzz?) is too small. Her toe nails are white. I can see she's a chicken! All of yours look like a giant fluff ball and can't tell if there is a chicken in there!
And my rooster. I like his comb- I've seen some at fairs where it looks like a giant tumor on their face.
They all have 5 toes and blue earlobes though! I've been looking on ebay for hatching eggs. I think I'm going to sell these guys eventually. Obviously they aren't breeding quality.
Please be gentle! I know they aren't as beautiful as you guys' but they were my first silkies that I got on cragslist. Live and learn right? They may be silkie abominations but they are MY abominations!
