Silkie thread!

My 2 silkie babies, 10 days old with their adopted mother. She's a black orp, and she adores and protects them. I put them under her when they were 1 day old as she was broody and I have no roosters. Bought them from a breeder, i can't wait to see what they grow into.

She will always be your baby. Can't tell by the pic is it the white one all the way to the right or the darker one?

"Tilly's Nest" website has an article on how/why the new avian flu is spreading and how the type A viruses mutate -- she's a nurse and is always on top of medical issues re: chickens.
 
i just noticed that my single comb roo has three rows like a pea comb only its a single comb with nice points in the middle and on either side are smaller points they are pretty uniform, modified single comb right?
