Its great to see they are getting a hearing! Poor llittle girl and roo.

So I am thinking of dyeing my white silkies to tell them apart, maybe just a dot of koolaid or food coloring. I don't like leg bands. Since they love baths and blow dryers, I figured being a different color might actually be an enjoyable experience for them. Any opinions? Please go easy on me, Im just curious about it. I'm the first person to yell at someone for doing something stupid and cruel to their animals, so Im not thinking about doing this lightly.

My 5 week olds! They are getting big. They don't sleep under momma anymore and she has been laying eggs in the brooder box, so I think it's about time to put her back with the flock so I can bond with them a little bit. They aren't as mellow as the last hatch. Just a little disclaimer, these are not the ones I was asking about dyeing with diluted food coloring in the bath, their mommas are really hard to tell apart. I wouldnt ever color chicks.












 
I love silkies :love I have a hen and a roster at the moment and I have 9 silkie eggs in the incubator. I hope to add to my slkie collection
