Silkie thread!

[lil mama]

I know what you mean! Was it hot where you are? I had the same thing here the other day! Everyone was fighting with each other and it happened to be the hottest day here so far at the time. I blamed it on the heat, that it made everyone crazy! LOL Even my 2 Fav boys were fighting and they never fight each other ever!
I also have a silkie boy, Henry, who took on a hawk to protect some younger chicks. He is my biggest silkie boy. He ended up with a slice on his back from it but healed up well. He is a pet quality silkie but has a home here forever because of that! Henry don't pick fights but no other boy will mess with him either, well except his dad once in a blue moon!

Here is Henry. He is a very sweet boy, great dad to the chicks and really watches over them as you can see in the picture.

Henry is a silkie hero! What a good daddy

My ??? male "porcelain" (split) ..... (also from Catdance) - 8 weeks old. Light eyes but I REALLY like him otherwise.

I need advice on bathing...

I washed my silkie pullet that has a "huge" top knot and it is always bending towards the front, doesn't stand up straight and the sides are always wet. I washed it with baby shampoo, thought I'd gotten all the gunky things out, but it still bends forward and looks odd. I bathed herfor a show tomorrow, & put in a water bottle waterer so she can't "dunk" her head in it. Is there anything else I could hve done to make her top fluff up better?

Great photos! My cat is a chick lover also. I sure like your porcelain girl! I'm afraid all my porcelains are boys. Those blacks look great too!
