Silkie thread!

My new silkie/silkie mix chicks =D

SO adorable! I love the coloring on the 6th chick down...will it keep that coloring or is it most likely going to change?

Someone should teach them how...

We are 6 and a half and 8 weeks old today! I am only keeping some, so only some have names. The others all have homes already.
Chance, he moves constantly!

Henley is adorable - and Gracie is going to be interesting to see what she colors out like. Chance is making up for not moving when he was little

Thanks!!! I am pretty positive that Chance is a boy. I'm hoping girl on the other 3. Henley has a nice crest, it is just always wet. Gracie is almost a purple gray color. Its weird. I think Sheldon may be a girl also. What are your thoughts? Also It is in the lower 40s here today and will be in the 50's tomorrow, then it is going to drop. I want to put Chance and Bell in the coop with the adult silkies. At 8 weeks old will they be okay with 6 adults? I want Chance and Booker to get aquainted while Chance is little. That's how my other roos have been integrated, before they mature, and it seems to work really well.

It's amazing what 8 weeks can do! My little crippled kiddo turned into an ornery little boy!

I do too! All 4 are a dark mahogany color. I'm not sure if they will keep it or not, they are Fayoumi/Showgirl mixes, and Fayoumi's are wild types, they start out brown striped and turn black and white, but these aren't striped so hopefully!

Can't wait to see what they will look like! Keep us updated when they start feathering in!
