Name: HeiHei & Yzmo
Gender: Males
Age: 6.5 months
Category: C, D & E
Tell us a bit about this Silkie!:
HeiHei is my Pennies protector. He stands watch when she goes in to lay her daily egg. He's a little off when try to eat and mate so I give him extra attention.

Yzmo is just a wishful roo. He tries to fake that he has food for the ladies but they all know he is fibbing. SMH... Poor guy.

Once again, I was amazed by all of these handsome Silkie roosters! Heihei is nothing less of handsome as well. Congratulations, @Silkie Jax! I would like to award you as the winner of Category D, Most Handsome Silkie.

Name: Mrs.Fluffie
Gender: Hen
Age: Almost 2
Category: Funniest
Tell us a bit about this Silkie!:
This is Mrs.Fluffie! She is funny to me because 1st I thought she was a rooster until she laid her first egg. She has a attitude problem like a roo. She charges at you and even tries to flog you if you don't give her the attention or treats she's demanding at the time. Good thing she's little with no spurs or she'd be on the chopping block! She is the boss even over the leghorns and sex-links triple her size. She attempted to beat up my 8 week old cane corso puppy when I introduced it to her. She still argues with the dog even though the dog could swallow her in one gulp now. She chatters all the time like she's a arguing with herself about the food, service and housing. LOL! When she goes broody and I lift her off the nest she makes the loudest thrilling sound you ever heard! When I put her in the cage to break her broody and let her out a few days later...if she's still broody she goes stomping off towards the laying boxes chattering and fussing the whole way like she's cussing me out. Mrs.Fluffie really should have been name Mrs. Sassie! Ha,ha!

All of the Silkies entered in this category made me grin from ear to ear. But I'd like to give @MrFluffyandGirls the award as winner of Category E, Funniest Silkie. Congrats, @MrFluffyandGirls!
