I can never turn down a silkie! I have breeder pens...Pet pens...and my disable pen

I fall so much in love with them each and everyone of them are different.

I can understand that..

What colors do you have? I've only had White/Buff/Partridge. I only have 2 White Silkie roosters right now, neither one of them are very nice to look at though. I bought 4 Silkie chicks last summer, 1 was white, 2 were buff and 1 was a partridge. One of the buffs died. I had the other three for awhile, until they're like 3 months old...then the white one died suddenly and then the partridge roo ( which was a totaly sweet heart ) and then the Buff roo..soooo sad!!​

I have white,partridge,buff,gray,black,blue & soon by may I will have Cuckoo,Lavender,Splash.

ETA: I also have some mixed color silkies.

Man Alive who gave all my silkies a bad attitude all the sudden? lol Wish my coop would hurry up and get here! 7 weeks old and they are getting pretty grumpy about being in their brooder!

I think all roos end up with a walnut comb sort of similar to the one pictured. I pretty sure the standard calls for a darker color of mulberry instead of bright red. At 11 weeks it's hard to tell on a lot of silkies who's a pullet and who's a cockerel. I have 7 week olds and one for sure is a pullet, on for sure is a hen the rest I have no idea!
Does your little one have mites or bloody stool? Have you wormed them? Just guessing here. My Peepers (lav ameruacana) was pretty sick for awhile. I wormed her and gave her a round of antibiotics and she perked back up.​

No bloody stool or mites now. They've had rounds of meds that seemed to have helped and she can find the food dish and water dish but she is nothing but a bag of nerves and can't even see to go out of the cage when I take them out for "walks."

I love all the pictures. I just love silkies especially mine. I hope it is ok for me to post this here, but I thought it would be ok since it is silkie related. I made a silkie dress and bow. I thought it turned out really good on my first try. I am going to be making another one for my daughter today.

Here is the link.
