Silkie thread!

Quote:
His comb looks too red, even for a splash, but I know sometimes the red is accentuated in pictures. Does it look like that in real life?

From a total newbie (me) - I saw bring him! I've asked a million questions, read everything I can, and I'm off to my first show next weekend. I figure its the next step in my learning adventure! Don't think I'll do well, but I'm sure I'll learn!
 
got some new buffs yesterday the roo is light i the comb but other then that nice its legs are very featherd

I have a question about the Silkies. I just hatched my first chicks and I was wandering at about what age do the hens wean them? I know most chickens its about at 6wks but I know Silkies mature slower so. Does anyone have a clue. I know some people that raise them but they mostly use incubators.

Took this a little while ago! The big week old yellow chick is a sultan mix. Isn't the partridge in the feeder just adorable??? I have 2 blues in there as well, and 2 more still in the incubator with 4 eggs that have not pipped yet. Hope they make it!!!
