Silkie thread!

I just have to show off my new silkies. Here are Brownie & Buffy, both 4 months old and we're 90% sure they're pullets.

And here they are getting to know our chicks (2 silkies and one polish.

Well, that's some good news. I was told differently so I've been a bit uncertain with this one for a while now-even with the lack of sickle feathers and crowing, ha. Guess I'm going to have to watch out for new eggs popping up.

Anyone know where I could get silkie chicks (5-8 wks old) near charleston, sc? I want them to be close in age to my chicks I have now.

Have you checked craigslist? I've found many silkies of every age on there near me, some are great quality too!

I ordered 7 white silkies, straight run, mix of bearded & non bearded from a hatchery. This morning someone had said that usually the hatcheries only give you non bearded. Is that true? How can I tell if these babies are bearded or not. They're only 5 days old. Can you tell this early?

I'm not sure if it's true but the bearded ones even as chicks should have extra fluff under their chin. Good luck with the new babies!
