I would love to name them Romeo and Juliet but my lil maltpoo dog is named Romeo and I don't think he would like that too much lol. He is white as well and I think he thinks they are his babies or something because he just follows them everywhere they go!

Still trying to figure all this out and didn't hit quote when replying to Janine718

My Silkies are now 8 weeks old. What do you think they are? Males or females?

I'm sure the anwserr is here some place but at what age do silkie roosters start to crow? I have one that is 14 weeks and he is a he but nothing yet. He like to make soft little sounds, which are so cute, but no crowing yet. And I have to say that my kids feel in love with this one. We just happened to find it at TSC in a bin of bantams. We now have 14 more, 6 of those are going to be sold. My 15 year old really wants to show them but not really sure about what it take for that. And I'm not sure any of ours are good enough. Plenty cute though! Also can I breed the batch I have to each other or should I get some eggs from a different person and breed them?

Thanks! And all these silkies are cute!!

My white Roo Charley is growing into a fine young man. Here he is with Lucy.

I've been having too much fun taking pics lately.

Love those silkie white feathers! So angelic!

There sure are. I have some cooking now!!

Ok, I momentarily freaked out when I read this, then realized that you mean you have some in the incubator......not actually cooking.....

For some reason it doesn't bother me to butcher some breeds of chickens, like the barred rock, or leghorn, or something similar, but to think of butchering a silkie ......just can't do it, nope, just can't
