Silkie thread!

Do they put up their crests with barrettes? I can just seem them with one of those clippy things we used to use on our hair as kids.

I saw some tied up with ribbon and others with little straps that had velcro. I would think the velcro would get feathers stuck in them though. It seemed easier to pluck the feathers around their eyes when their crest was tied up.

Here is some info.  The shows that I've been to are usually over by 3:00, so I can't say for sure if 2:00 will be too late.  It's good show etiquette for exhibitors to keep their chickens cooped in their cages until the end of the show, so most people stay until the end.  I'm all for leaving early sometimes, but I stay .   I'm not selling anything yet.  I'm picking  up two new roos when I'm there.  If they work out, I'm going to sell my Blue Partridge roo.  I love him, and he's the son of  my best rooster that got killed, but he needs an older hen to show him some manners.  He's GREAT with people, but he's too rough on the girls.  He'll be on auction, because he's very good quality.  Will also be selling a little black (with gold leakage) roo for a pet quality price.  I didn't breed him.  He's better than pet quality to me.  He'll be $15.00.   I know you have a lot of roos!     -Pam

Thanks! It's a mystery that's for CERTAIN!! There is so much to learn about these little cuties!! It doesn't matter to us...smooth or silkie'd...we LOVE them! This little sweetie was the only one to hatch for us out of 4 eggs...so of course it has a special place in our hearts. I'll be sure to keep you posted how our "silkie mutt" grows out. It's pretty darn cute either way!
