Cleo's pretty. What kind of chicken is she? I love how in the third picture she looks annoyed at the silkie like it invaded her space or something.

She's a fayoumi

pretty little birds. Yes I believe she was annoyed at Icelynn haha, I was trying to take pictures of Ice and Cleo ran over and posed in front of her so I could only take a picture of her! She wants all camera's on her

Thunderhead is going through an awkward phase. The poor chick looks like a bearded old man with a bad haircut.

Lol, so cute!

Yeah he is, thanks! I think I am going to give him to one of the girls here at the farm. I got her hooked on the poultry shows, we've been traveling together to each show. She doesn't have any show quality birds and I've been helping her find a nice one. Problem is, she can't take one home as she already has plenty of pet chickens and mom wouldn't be too happy with more chickens. lol So, what we all agreed on, was that the girl can have a show bird (or two) and keep it here at the farm.

I was almost thinking of selling the self-blue chick because we'll have too many roosters. But I REALLY don't want to sell him. So this solution will work just fine!

I'll just have to find homes for two of our PQ roosters to make room for these cockerels and hope that this little guy will be nice enough to show.

Wow! Great plan!

Or an old lady with a fancy hat and fur collar.

Um... broody is contagious and can be transmitted to any Silkie in the vicinity. Quarantine is necessary to prevent the spread of this disease. The end results are a complete stop in egg production, extreme feather loss, huge smelly poops, odd activity like running around with their wings spread clucking and squalling, growling and possibly pecking at you if you try and move them when they are laying down and not moving for hours, and an eventual increase in the chicken count. The benefits are they are so cute to watch...
