Silkie thread!

[BuckNBark Farm]

I have a buff laced Polish rooster named Andy (he is the one at the bottom of the stairs in the picture on the Stockton thread) that I would be happy to give you. He is such a sweetie! That way you can hatch out your own Polish. I also have an 8 month old mixed buff x chocolate cuckoo rooster that is cream colored and just gorgeous! I don't have the Polish rooster in with my girls right now for eggs. The bantam blue laced red Wyandotte rooster is in with the Polish and BLRW girls. A friend of mine wanted some bantam BLRW chicks.

I took some pictures of my 12 week old Silkies today. They look full grown already!

Beautiful!

Beautiful!

Don't you think my porcelain boy in the first picture, far right and the last picture would go nicely with the porcelain pullet in your avatar picture? The pullet I just lost looked like yours

Here are two of my sizzles/frizzles (I don't know the difference) silks I hatched on new years! 2 weeks 1 day today!

I didn't find out until the first week I had 2 frizzle/sizzles out of my 3 silkies hatched! I lOVE them to bits! one may be a hen, but the white one is a rooster for sure....his comb is already getting bigger! he is SUPER HEAVY TOO!

This is Squidgy. My little brother named him after a show called "Justin Time". He is the one we think is a rooster....he stands very tall, and is super heavy for 2 weeks. his comb is also rather big.
White frizzle/sizzle

This is Timothy. We think she may be a hen, but I have no idea! I named her Timothy after an inside joke with my sister @chickED when we told my brother my name was no longer Ashley, but timothy......Ever since then I have adored the name timothy.....I just knew my favorite chick HAD to be named that no matter it's gender!
partridge sizzle/frizzle

Those are some beauties! How can you not melt over a face like that and all that fluff.

Hi,
I have a hard time with this also, you are by no means alone. Here's a link that helps explain it all.

Can someone please help me this is my thought to be female 5 1/2 month old Silkie Zoey. he/she has recently grown much faster and a much larger, HUGE comb and wattle. he/she has what I think to be streamers and the male tail feathers. he/she is no where near as social as the other female and dislikes people. I'm not sure the only other rooster I have ever had was a huge Delaware that started crowing at a very young age. these two are also the first Silkies I have ever owned. we started off with six Silkie chicks (one being severely disabled and dying very young) and are down to two. here are the pictures

older from pic 2 months ago ignore me I look horrific its hard to look good while an angry chicken wont hold still for the picture
todays pictures
not very good but it was the only ones where he/she looked straight at the camera
