Silkie question.

When you want to display the size of something in a photo, you need to put some reference point in the photo. The standard thing I've seen with serama is having them next to a soda can. Geologists use rulers. In the photo shown, there is nothing to indicate size. Beautiful photo of lovely birds, just nothing to reference size.

Like I said above. That's just the pic she used in her add. I wished I had taken photos of her birds myself while I was there. I was a bit daunted at first thinking, nice fluff but way to large for this breed. She has the largest of the breed I've ever seen. ....She's the reason I found this site. She told me she got her birds from Goldenfeather? I didn't ask her to elaborate. I looked up goldenfeather,& it brought me here.

Here's pics of mine. There about 5 weeks old now......Thats my 8 week old midget blue bantam with them.

Nice babies, Peeps. Eggs for sale??

I dont count my eggs till the girls lay them, but it's looks like it's gonna be another 20 weeks or so before they start laying. I've been trying to get in touch with the girl I got them from.... I want more myself.

US Silkies are actually in between bantam and standards., compared to European bantam silkies ours are giant!

And yes there are people working on standard sized silkies, there is at least two sellers on ebay with "giant/standard silkies".

Do you have the weights for European bantam and standard silkies?
