That's what I was thinking too. But I'm seeing what looks like streamers growing in. I'll take a picture of it tomorrow. Also it gets picked on by the rooster and a couple of the hens. Could that mean something too?

Very cute babies! I keep reading instances where people hafta give their chicks vitamins such as Poly-vi-sol without iron for health problems. Is this something that would be recommended to do for new chicks just in general? I get my order of 30 chicks on Monday and just want to give them their best chance after their long journey from Iowa to Alaska any tips would be much appreciated thank you!

I love the lil fluffballs, sad when you loose them since they such lovely creatures. Has anyone else here had problems with them not overwintering well in an unheated coop/barn? I had three silkies, one roo (hatchery? my guess?) given to me and two silkie hens from a breeder. The two silkie hens didnt make it this winter but the roo did. Perhaps different hardiness levels in the different strains???/
