Silkie thread!

Nakiya, I have no idea what ground 15 is? Hopefully someone else can get back at you with an answer.


Silkie owners out there, how many eggs can a silkie incubate under her? My silkie is a small girl, just curious :)
 
Good question, both would be nice to know


Depending on size of lf, 4-6 I'd think... and my Silkies did 8 Silkie eggs, np... but watch them, they'll steal more than can fit... had a pair of sisters brooding together, am amazed they hatched anything with stealing/swapping they did... :gig


either way, make sure they're all covered by the hen. I would think about 5-6 LF, 8 small :idunno


:frow

Heyla, how're you doing? :)

Yep, I've heard of two silkies together hatching 20+ :eek:

:frow I'm well, my flock is well. :)

You?
 
I have two Silkie chicks and one older one 4-5 months I rescued but was wondering what qualities do breeders look for in chicks to know if they are show quality?
