Just wanted to post some pics I took today, I love my silkies!

Beautiful Birds! In the seventh pic down is that a white bird with a dark crest? If so that is super cool!

After 24 hours of "tape" therapy. I think it's looking better.

I didn't put tape back on the left one. I thought it looked pretty good.

I have a show girl that crows every morning. The person I got her from said she was a hen. I have never heard of a hen crowing. Do they, or do I have a rooster. If so, I will have to rename her as her name is Marilyn now. Thanks as I am a neebie at raising chickens. I have the show girl, a shadow (this one crows toos) and a blue (this one was suppose to be the rooster and does not crows at all) silkie. They are about six months old. At what age do they start laying eyes? I really love them. They are so soft and cuddly.

Looking Great! You are doing a excellent job. isn't it awesome to see them get better.

Yes. Girls can crow. I have 3 that do. They can start laying at about 6 months all the way up to a year. If you post pictures we might be able to help you determine gender.

I hope all is well.

I just got 3 chicks and would like to know more about them. I had chickens when I was younger, around 7 or something.... just standard chickens, hahaha I guess. I was told I bought Bantam Silkie Chicks, they were all mixed together...just left overs maybe. They couldn't tell me what they would look like or temperament. I was told they carried only certain breed... they showed me a picture on a chart, of what one may look like.

I am hoping I could get some help, figuring out what they will look like! Clearly I found the right spot to ask!

Please help, if you are able, I would greatly appreciate it!
