I remember seeing Icelynn in her spring clothes in the Silkie Thread! I am not looking for a show chicken though. Did you have to potty train Icelynn? I would like to have one of my silkies in the house but I don't want it pooping everywhere lol.You could definitely sell the eggs, but they aren't very consistent layers. I LOVE my silkies, even though only one hen is laying and it's very inconsistent. If your looking for a good lapchicken, their your breed! Be prepared though that your silkies from ideal will most likely not be show quality, especially if they are bearded. You could still show them for fun but hatcheries don't produce as much for quality as quantity. They are great broodies, but be prepared to make a broody breaker because they seem to be broody more than not hahaThey LIVE to hatch! and to see just how docile they are, here is a picture of my baby Icelynn
(who by the way, just learned how to climb the ladder to her palace while I was typing this) So they are smart too! Just don't always act it because they have a hard time seeing through all that fluff. PS: Icelynn is a therapy chicken in training and goes to work with me every weekend! She helps me sell pet food.![]()
